A method of forming emitters and a method of manufacturing a Field
Emission Device (FED) using the method includes: forming a
volume-changeable structure on an electrode, the volume-changeable
structure composed of a polymer which reversibly swells and shrinks in
response to an external stimulus; injecting an electron-emitting material
into the volume-changeable structure; aligning the electron-emitting
material; and removing the polymer to form the emitters.
