Abstract

Abstract The present invention discloses a method of producing a discharge display device which enables formation of a satisfactory LaB 6 cathode without using a LaB 6 paste containing a glass binder. The method of the present invention comprises the steps of applying a conductive paste containing a glass binder, temporarily drying said conductive paste to form a conductive paste layer, forming a LaB 6 layer containing no glass binder on said conductive paste layer, burning said conductive paste layer and said LaB 6 layer, at the same time, and activating said LaB 6 layer after being burnt, and after an exhausting step by gas discharge with large current to form a LaB 6 cathode.
