A light emission device for improving high voltage stability and a display device using the same as a light source includes first and second substrates facing each other, an electron emission unit located on one side of the first substrate and including a plurality of electron emission elements, and a light emission unit located on one side of the second substrate and emitting a visible light. Each of the electron emission elements includes first electrodes spaced apart from each other by a predetermined interval along a first direction of the first substrate, second electrodes arranged between the first electrodes along the first direction, and first electron emission regions electrically connected to the first electrodes and formed at a predetermined height lower than that of the first electrodes.
