A method for production includes a step for forming concave molds on a surface of a substrate and a step for growing a diamond heteroepitaxially on the substrate in an atmosphere containing a doping material. The crystal structure of the slope of the concave molds of the substrate can have the cubic system crystal orientation (111), and the doping material is phosphorous. Further, the substrate is Si, and the slope of the molds can be the Si(111) face. The diamond electron emission device contains projection parts on the surface thereof, where a slope of the projection parts 1 contains a diamond (111) face, and flat parts 2, which are not the projection parts, contain face orientations other than (100) face or (110) face and grain boundaries.

The present invention relates to a diamond n-type semiconductor in which the amount of change in carrier concentration is fully reduced in a wide temperature range. The diamond n-type semiconductor comprises a diamond substrate, and a diamond semiconductor formed on a main surface thereof and turned out to be n-type. The diamond semiconductor exhibits a carrier concentration (electron concentration) negatively correlated with temperature in a part of a temperature region in which it is turned out to be n-type, and a Hall coefficient positively correlated with temperature. The diamond n-type semiconductor having such a characteristic is obtained, for example, by forming a diamond semiconductor doped with a large amount of a donor element while introducing an impurity other than the donor element onto the diamond substrate.
