Conventional structure and its problems Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 14063/1983 as a flat cathode ray tube;
There is one shown in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 55-33734.
This basic structure is shown in FIG. 10 is the diameter 10 to number
It is a linear cathode with an oxide thermionic emission material coated on the surface of a 10 micron tungsten wire, and multiple cathodes are arranged at regular intervals so as to extend horizontally in a vertical plane. 11 is a back electrode, and 12 is an electron beam extracting electrode having openings 12a which correspond to the cathode position and are provided at a constant pitch in the horizontal direction (in the direction of the extension axis of the cathode). A method for extracting an electron beam from the cathode 10 is described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 14306/1983.
This is shown in FIG. A constant voltage V 2 is applied to the beam extraction electrode 12 and a constant voltage V 1 is applied to the back electrode 11, and the voltage relationship is V 2 >V 1 . A cathode 10 is installed between these electrodes 11 and 12, and a DC voltage VH is applied to it via a resistor R to heat it. When the potential V H during this heating is made higher than the other electrode potentials V 1 and V 2 , the electron beam is not emitted from the cathode 10 and the cathode 10 is in a cut-off state. When you want to extract the beam, apply a negative pulse from the cathode pulse generator 23 to the cathode 10, and if you make the cathode potential at that time lower than the beam extraction electrode potential V2 , the beam will be directed toward the beam extraction electrode 12. An electron beam is emitted from the cathode 10. The diode 24 is provided to prevent the cathode heating current from flowing backward at this time.

Returning to FIG. 1 again, the electron beam 17 emitted from the cathode 10 as described above passes through the apertures 12a of the beam extraction electrode 12, and the electron beams that have passed through each aperture 12a reach the phosphor screen 16. vertically focused and
It is focused by a deflection system 13 and a horizontal focusing/deflection system 15. Therefore, a large number of electron beam spots arranged in a row in the horizontal direction are obtained.
Furthermore, in order to display images like on television, each electron beam is modulated by a video signal into a modulation system 14.
At the same time, the individual beams are deflected horizontally and vertically. If the number of cathodes arranged vertically is m, this deflection area is 1/m of the vertical area of the entire screen, and if n electron beams are arranged horizontally, then the horizontal area of the entire screen is It becomes 1/n. Therefore, the negative pulse applied to the cathode 10 is such that the cathode is at a negative potential for a time T/n, where T is the time it takes for the electron beam to scan the vertical region of the entire screen. Therefore, an electron beam is emitted from one cathode 10 for T/n time, and the next adjacent cathode 10 emits an electron beam for T/n time again at the moment when the electron emission from the previous cathode 10 is interrupted. make a release.

As described above, the m×n electron beams are each deflected horizontally and vertically in a small area to form the entire screen. However, since a plurality of cathodes 10 are used in this type of flat cathode ray tube, if the amount of electron beams emitted from each cathode 10 is different, a pattern of m bright and dark bands will appear on the phosphor screen 16, resulting in poor image quality. damage. Until now, there have been no examples of countermeasures for this problem.

In the flat cathode ray tube of the type shown in FIG. 1, the electron beam is focused separately horizontally and vertically, and beam modulation is performed after vertical focusing. Therefore, at the point where it exits the vertical focusing/deflection system 33, it becomes a band-shaped DC beam that is not modulated by the video signal and is also unfocused in the horizontal direction.
A certain amount of beam current flows into the final electrode of the deflection system 33. By detecting and amplifying this flowing beam current with the current detector 35, the amount and variation of the emitted current from each cathode can be determined. The output waveform of this current detector 35 is shown in FIG. 41 is its output waveform, and 42 is a negative pulse from the pulse generator 34 applied to each of the m cathodes. The output of the current detector 35 is sent to a sampling hold and error signal generation circuit 36. This sampling hold/error signal generation circuit 36 extracts the current value corresponding to the electron beam current emitted from each cathode 30 using the pulse from the cathode pulse generator 34, and detects the difference between the current value and the required beam current value. , the error signal is applied to the beam extraction electrode voltage control circuit 37, and the beam extraction electrode voltage is controlled so that no error signal is generated, that is, so that the required beam current is uniformly obtained from all cathodes 30. .

In the embodiments described above, the voltage of the beam extraction electrode 32 is controlled so that the beam current value becomes a constant value. , the cathode heating current may be controlled based on the error signal.

In addition, the vertical focusing/deflection system 33 is used to detect the beam current.
Although the method using the final electrode has been described, it goes without saying that any electrode may be used as long as it is a single-layer surface electrode before beam modulation with a video signal. In these cases, the beam amount can be detected using a single surface electrode, so only one detection circuit is required.
It can be simplified.

Effects of the Invention As described above, the present invention includes a sheet-like electron beam forming section composed of a plurality of linear cathodes, an electron focusing system, a modulation system, a deflection system, and an acceleration system, and a face section on which a fluorescent screen is formed. In preparation, the beam is synchronized with the operation timing of each cathode to sequentially emit a beam in chronological order.
The system detects the beam current flowing into a single-layer plane electrode located before the electron beam modulation system, and controls the current value to be the same for each cathode, which produces a bright and dark strip on the screen. This prevents the occurrence of patterns and makes it possible to produce high-quality images with a single detection circuit.
