2. Description of the Related Art A general fluorescent display tube has a cathode which emits electrons and an anode which has a phosphor layer inside an envelope which is held in a high vacuum atmosphere. The electrons emitted from the cathode strike the anode to cause the phosphor layer to emit light.

The higher the driving voltage of the fluorescent display tube for accelerating the electrons, the easier the phosphor layer on which the electrons impinge is to decompose.
Therefore, in order to prevent the decomposition of the phosphor, a protective film may be formed on the surface of the phosphor layer. For example, in the case of a zinc oxide phosphor, a SiO 2 film is formed on the surface of the phosphor, and the phosphor is decomposed in a wide range of driving voltage from low voltage to high voltage by controlling the amount of SiO 2. It can be effectively prevented.

In fluorescent display tubes, the use of phosphors other than the zinc oxide phosphor has been promoted in order to perform multicolor emission display. For example, sulfide phosphors capable of emitting red or blue light are used in full-color or multi-color graphic fluorescent display tubes.

However, the sulfide phosphor has a problem that even if the SiO 2 film is formed on the surface of the sulfide phosphor, the sulfide phosphor is easily decomposed when the electrons are accelerated by a high voltage of about 100 V. Then, when the sulfide phosphor is decomposed, sulfur scatters inside the envelope of the fluorescent display tube, and the sulfur adheres to the cathode and reduces its electron emission capability. Therefore, there is a problem in that the anode current of the fluorescent display tube is lowered, and the display luminance is quickly lowered. The sulfide phosphor is used in combination with the zinc oxide phosphor, but when the sulfide phosphor decomposes, the decomposed sulfur adheres to the surface of the adjacent zinc oxide phosphor and the emission characteristics of zinc oxide itself also deteriorate. There was the problem of letting it go.

EXAMPLES The present inventors consider the reason why even if a SiO 2 film is formed on a sulfide phosphor, it is easily decomposed by electron bombardment accelerated by a control voltage of about 100V, as follows. did. First, an SiO 2 film was formed on a ZnS crystal substrate by the sol-gel method, but the adhesion strength was weak and the SiO 2 film was peeled off from the phosphor very easily. From this fact, Z
It was considered that the sulfide phosphor having nS, (Zn, Cd) S, etc. as a matrix could not have high adhesion because the crystal lattice mismatch with SiO 2 was large. Therefore, it is considered that even if the sulfide phosphor is coated with SiO 2 , the sulfide phosphor is easily peeled off by electron impact or ion impact. Further, when the amount of the SiO 2 film coated is increased, the sulfide phosphor and the SiO 2 film are
It is considered that as the strain between the two films increases and the amount of the SiO 2 film increases, the crystallinity of the surface of the sulfide phosphor deteriorates and the decomposition easily occurs.
