Definitions
- the invention relates to a display device comprising a display screen which is provided with a filtering layer comprising silicon dioxide, a black dye, and a metal oxide.
- the invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a filtering layer of silicon dioxide on a display screen of a display device.
- Filtering layers serving to reduce the light transmission are used on the faceplates of display devices, such as cathode ray tubes (CRTs) and liquid crystal display devices (LCD and LC-TV), to improve the contrast of the reproduced image.
- CTRs cathode ray tubes
- LCD and LC-TV liquid crystal display devices
- Such filtering layers reduce the transmission of both incident ambient light and light originating from CRT phosphors.
- the filtering layers can be provided in a uniform manner, the transmission of the filtering layers is also uniform.
- the incident ambient light passes through the filtering layer and the glass display screen, after which it reflects off the rough phosphor layer on the inside of the display screen and again passes through the display screen and the filtering layer.
- T transmissivity of the filtering layer
- the intensity of the reflected ambient light is reduced by a factor of T 2 .
- Light originating from CRT phosphors passes through the filtering layer only once, so that the intensity of this light is reduced by only a factor of T, resulting in an increase of the contrast by a factor of T.
- a disadvantage of the known filtering layer is its purplish-violet appearance which in the case of much ambient light leads to an undesired purplish background of the reproduced image.
- a further disadvantage of the known dyes used is that they are not resistant to light, so that when the layer is exposed to ambient light the transmission of the layer increases with passage of time, and hence the contrast-increasing effect decreases.
- European patent application EP-A-517.611 discloses a cathode ray tube having a screen provided with a nonglare film comprising silica, a black dye and a metal oxide such as tin oxide or indium oxide as a conductive agent in order to produce an antistatic effect.
- the invention also aims at providing a simple method of manufacturing such a filtering layer on a display screen, which filtering layer may have, if desired, a high-gloss appearance.
- a display device as described in the opening paragraph, which is characterized according to the invention in that the metal of the oxide is selected from the group formed by Ge, Zr, Al and Ti.
- the metal of the oxide is selected from the group formed by Ge, Zr, Al and Ti.
- Black dyes which are suitable for use in accordance with the invention are Orasol Black CNTM (Colour Index: Solvent Black 28) and Orasol Black RLTM (Colour Index: Solvent Black 29) available from Ciba Geigy; Zapon Black X51TM (Colour Index: Solvent Black 27) available from BASF and Lampronol Black” (Colour Index: Solvent Black 35) available from ICI. Said dyes enable high-gloss black filtering layers to be manufactured.
- a very suitable dye is Orasol Black CNTM (Colour Index: Solvent Black 28) because it has a high resistance to light. The chemical structural formula of the latter dye is unknown; according to the information provided by the supplier it is a mono-azo chromium complex.
- the filtering layer comprises dye stuff in a quantity of 1-15% by weight.
- the transmission of the filtering layer comprising said dye is substantially constant and hence spectrally neutral. It has been found that these and other dyes can readily be leached when the filtering layer is in contact with customary cleaning liquids such as ethanol, acetone, diluted acetic acid, ammonium hydroxide, soap and salt water.
- customary cleaning liquids such as ethanol, acetone, diluted acetic acid, ammonium hydroxide, soap and salt water.
- the above metal oxides can be incorporated in the filtering layer on the basis of a mixture of an alkoxysilane and a corresponding alkoxy compounds of said metals, such as tetraethyl orthogermanate Ge(OC 2 H 5 ) 4 (TEOG), tetrabutyl orthozirconate Zr(OC 4 H 9 ) 4 (TBOZ), tetrapropyl orthozirconate Zr(OC 3 H 7 ) 4 (TPOZ), tripropyl orthoaluminate Al(OC 3 H 7 ) 3 (TPOAl) and tetraethyl orthotitanate Ti(OC 2 H 5 ) 4 (TEOTi) in an alcoholic solution.
- the filtering layer is formed in the hereinafter described manner.
- the filtering layer comprises 2-15 mole%, preferably 5-12 mole%, of germanium oxide or zirconium oxide in relation to silicon dioxide. Below 5 mole% the filtering layer is less resistant to cleaning liquids and above 15 mole% no further improvement of the resistance to leaching is obtained and the filtering layer becomes unnecessarily expensive. In addition, above 15 mole% of zirconium oxide, there is a greater risk of gellification of the alcoholic solution after a few hours at room temperature, which would render the solution unsuitable for further processing.
- the object of providing a method of manufacturing a filtering layer of silicon dioxide on a display screen of a display device is achieved in that the filtering layer is manufactured by providing, on the display screen, an alcoholic solution of an alkoxysilane compound, an alkoxy compound of at least one metal selected from the group formed by Ge, Zr, Al and Ti, acidified water and a black dye, followed by a treatment at an increased temperature, thereby forming the filtering layer comprising silicon dioxide, an oxide of the metal and the dye.
- a suitable alkoxysilane compound for use in the method in accordance with the invention is tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS).
- TEOS tetraethyl orthosilicate
- Other alkoxysilane compounds of the type Si(OR) 4 , which are known per se , and oligomers thereof can alternatively be used, wherein R represents an alkyl group, preferably a C 1 -C 5 alkyl group.
- the alcoholic solution is applied to the display screen by spin coating. After drying and heating to, for example, 160°C for 30 minutes a grey to black, smooth and high-gloss filtering layer is obtained in this manner.
- the solution may be beneficial to add a surface-active substance, for example in quantities of from 0.001 to 5% by weight, to the solution.
- the alcoholic solution can be applied by spraying, thereby forming a mat filtering layer having anti-glare properties.
- the alcohol use can be made of ethanol, propanol, butanol, diacetone alcohol or a mixture thereof.
- acidified water the alkoxy groups of Si and the above-mentioned metals are converted into hydroxy groups by hydrolysis. Said hydroxy groups react with each other and with hydroxy groups of the glass surface of the display screen.
- acetylacetone (2,4-pentanedione) per mole of alkoxy compound of Ge, Zr, Al or Ti is also added to the alcoholic solution.
- This addition leads to an improved abrasion resistance of the filtering layer formed.
- the enol form of acetylacetone forms a complex with the metal M, as a result of which the velocity of the hydrolysis reaction and condensation reaction of the relevant M compound is reduced by steric hindrance.
- a filtering layer having antistatic properties can be obtained by adding a conductive metal oxide such as tin oxide, indium oxide or antimony oxide, the oxide being suspended in the alcoholic solution of the alkoxy compounds. It is alternatively possible to provide the filtering layer on a separate transparent front plate instead of on the display screen itself.
- FIG. 1 is a partly exploded perspective view of an embodiment of a cathode ray tube in accordance with the invention.

After a reaction time of 6 hours, the mixture obtained is passed through a PTFE filter having a pore size of 0.2 ⁇ m.
- TBOZ tetrabutoxy zirconate
- the above solutions are spin coated on to clean glass plates of 10 x 10 cm at a speed of 200 r.p.m. for 1 minute.
- the coated glass plates are heated to 150°C for 20 minutes, thereby forming the cured filtering layers.

- All filtering layers are resistant to washing with weak acid, weak base, ethanol, acetone, water and customary cleaning agents.
- the resistance to light of the filtering layers is tested by means of the so-called Xenotest in accordance with DIN-standards 54003 and 54004, using a Heraeus Suntest CPS apparatus.
- the filtering layers are exposed to artificial light corresponding to daylight under indoor conditions, in such a manner that a residence time of the filtering layer of 24 hours in this apparatus corresponds to 1 year of indoor conditions as tested according to DIN-wool standards.
- the results after an exposure corresponding to 4 years of indoor use (DIN-wool scale 6) are listed in Table 1.
