Abstract

An ion generating device includes a plurality of first electrodes extending in a first direction; a plurality of second electrodes extending in the second direction which is different from the first direction, to constitute a matrix; a third electrode so disposed that the second electrodes lie between the first electrodes and the third electrode, the third electrode having apertures corresponding to the matrix; a first dielectric member disposed between the first electrodes and the second electrodes; a second dielectric member disposed between the second electrodes and third electrode, the second dielectric member having a plurality of apertures corresponding to the matrix, which apertures each have a cross-sectional area generally increasing toward the third electrode. A method of manufacturing the same including the steps of providing an assembly constituted by the first electrodes, the second electrodes and the first dielectric member interposed therebetween; bonding a dielectric sheet to the second electrodes and bonding a conductive sheet to the dielectric sheet; forming apertures corresponding to the matrix in the conductive sheet to form the third electrode; and etching the …
