Abstract
An electron-emitting material contains a first metal component selected from Ba, Sr and Ca and a second metal component selected from Ta, Zr, Nb, Ti and Hf and also contains oxynitride perovskite. The electron-emitting material has improved electron emission characteristics, restrained evaporation at elevated temperatures, and minimized consumption by ion sputtering. The electron-emitting material is prepared by firing a metal component-containing raw material disposed in proximity to carbon in a nitrogen gas-containing atmosphere to thereby create oxynitride perovskite.
