Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable the stable takeout of electron beams and the display of an excellent image of high quality by specifying the relation between the spiral winding pitch of a linear cathode electrode and the contact part length of its support means. CONSTITUTION:The spiral winding pitch of a linear cathode electrode 3 is made smaller than the contact part length of a linear cathode electrode supporting means 4. Even if the linear cathode electrode 3 causes a relative position change to the linear cathode electrode supporting means 4 by its thermal extension and contraction, the support means contact part is never fallen between the linear cathode electrode spiral windings, nor 'catching' is caused. Thus, problems such as the occurrence of continuity with the support means ground metal because of peeling of the oxide electron radiating material, deflection of the linear cathode electrode 3, and chipping of the edge can be prevented. Hence, the electron beams can be stably taken out, and an excellent image of high quality can be stably displayed.

Electron beam extraction switching electrodes 12 are formed in stripes on the surface of the insulating base 11 using a conductive thin film. The linear cathode electrode 13 is brought into contact with the linear cathode electrode 13 corresponding to the insulating surface between the stripes of the take-out switching electrode 12 in order to prevent vibration, since the occurrence of vibration affects the image display. A linear cathode electrode support means 14 is disposed in this manner. This linear cathode electrode support means 14 is required to have precision, heat resistance, insulation, etc., so it is constructed by forming holes in a metal plate by etching, etc., and then coating it with a heat-resistant insulating material such as alumina. . The linear cathode electrode 13 has a structure in which a spiral winding 13-b is provided around a linear core wire 13-a, and an oxide radiation material 13-C is applied between the windings.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention In such a conventional configuration, when a display device is used, a heater current is turned on and off to the linear cathode electrode 13, and accordingly, the linear cathode electrode 13 is heated due to thermal expansion. 13 expands and contracts. Since one end of the linear cathode electrode 13 is a spring, this expansion and contraction is absorbed by the stroke of the spring, so that the linear cathode electrode 13 is always stretched without bending.

Here, the linear cathode electrode 13 is brought into contact with the linear cathode support means 14 to prevent vibration, and as shown in FIG. 3, the length of the contact part: L is the spiral winding pitch. : If it is larger than P, for example, Fig. 4(a)
As shown in FIG. 2, the contact portion of the support means 14 gets stuck between the linear cathode electrode spiral windings, causing the electron emissive material applied thereto to peel off, resulting in uneven generation of electron beams. Furthermore, when the linear cathode electrode 13 undergoes thermal expansion and contraction, the relative position of the linear cathode electrode supporting means 14 changes, as shown in FIG. 4(b).
This may lead to a situation where the linear cathode electrode 13 is bent or the edge of the linear cathode electrode support means is missing.

Misalignment due to bending of the linear cathode electrode 13 causes uneven extraction of electron beams, and chipping of the edges scrapes the insulating film on the surface of the linear cathode electrode supporting means 14, causing the base metal and the linear cathode electrode to become uneven. Electrical conduction with the cathode electrode 13 occurs, making it impossible to extract the electron beam.

Therefore, it is possible to prevent problems such as peeling of the oxide electron radioactive material, bending of the linear cathode electrode, or occurrence of conduction with the base metal of the supporting means due to bending or chipping of the edges, and as a result, stable electron beam extraction can be achieved.
