Abstract

A method is provided of making a photoemissive cathode including bonding an electron emissive layer to a glass faceplate at an elevated temperature and pressure to form a cathode structure and cooling the cathode structure at a rate which will maintain stress between the electron emissive layer and the faceplate at or below a predetermined level in order to avoid brush marks and crosshatchings during subsequent processing steps. The cathode is cooled from a bonding temperature to room temperature in approximately twenty minutes or less.
