The supporting member composed of a material of high electric resistivity may alternately be provided between the first and the second portions of the focus electrode, or between the cathode and the second focus electrode portion, wherein the two focus electrode portions are arranged adjacently to each other in the axial direction of the device, and wherein the first focus electrode portion is directly connected to the cathode. | |
