An electron emission device includes first electrodes arranged on a substrate in a direction of the substrate, and an insulating layer arranged on an entire surface of the substrate and covering the first electrodes. Second electrodes are arranged on the insulating layer and are perpendicular to the first electrodes. Electron emission regions are connected to one of the first and the second electrodes. The lateral edges of the first electrodes and the lateral edges of the second electrodes respectively cross each other.
