An electron source substrate including: a substrate; an electron-emitting
device having a pair of device electrodes locating on the substrate and
an electroconductive thin film which is provided between the device
electrodes and has an electron-emitting region; and an antistatic film
which is come into contact with at least the pair of device electrodes
and covers over an exposed surface of the substrate, wherein a leakage
current flowing between the device electrodes in a non-driving mode at a
low voltage is suppressed. A high-impedance portion which obstructs the
current caused across the pair of device electrodes through the
antistatic film is provided in the antistatic film.
