Abstract

491,292. Cathode-ray tubes. MARCONI'S WIRELESS TELEGRAPH CO., Ltd. Jan. 22, 1938, No. 2192. Convention date, March 30, 1937. [Class 39 (i)] The mosaic structure of a cathode-ray tube comprises a nonconduc tive base with a thir layer of insulating ma terial flashed on one side thereof in vacuo and minute separated photosensitive particles on the thin layer there being a layer of conducting material on the opposite side of the base. In the form shown, a sheet of mica 14 is coated on the underside with a film of platinum 15 and on the other side with a film of cryolite, calcium fluoride or sodium fluoride 16. The film of fluoride &c. is then dusted with silver oxide then reduced by heating to minute separated particles of silver. Alternatively the silver may be applied as a metallic film which is then broken up into particles by heat treatment. The coated mica sheet is then mounted in the tube envelope which is evacuated and the silver particles oxidized and exposed to caesium vapour. The tube is then baked and any caesium deposited between the particles is taken up by a stannic oxide getter. The particles may finally be given a thin coating of nickel or silver by evaporation from an appropriately coated filament in the tube. The mica is coated with insulation by mounting it in an envelope containing a tungsten filament which has been coated with the fluoride or other insulating material, the container then being evacuated and the filament heated to flash off the material.
