Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a method for fabricating a screen in a color CRT (Cathode Ray Tube), and more particularly, to a method for fabricating a screen in a color CRT, in which, in formation of a color filter film and a fluorescent film on the same time, a pigment layer is formed, a photo sensitive resin solution is coated thereon, a fluorescent material layer is sprayed thereon, and the pigment layer and the fluorescent film are exposed and developed, to prevent the pigment layer and the fluorescent film from peeling off and to form thin and close packed fluorescent films on the photo sensitive resin solution, for enhancing a contrast and a color purity as well as a luminance and cutting characteristics.
- 2. Background of the Related Art
- Referring to FIG. 1, the color CRT is provided with a
panel 1 having aflourescent film 3 coated on an inside surface thereof, afunnel 2 welded to thepanel 1 by using a welding glass having a conductive graphite coated on an inside surface thereof, anelectron gun 6 mounted in aneck 4 of thefunnel 2 for emission ofelectron beams 5, ashadow mask 7 inside of thepanel 1 supported on aframe 8 for selection of a color, and adeflection yoke 9 on an outer circumference of the funnel for deflection of the electron beams in left and right directions. In the cathode ray tube, when a video signal is received at theelectron gun 6, thermal electrons are emitted from a cathode in the electron gun, and travels toward the panel as the electron beams are accelerated and converged by voltages applied thereto from respective electrodes of the electron gun. In this instance, theelectron beams 5 has travel paths adjusted by magnetic fields from magnets fitted in the neck of the funnel, directed onto an inside surface of the panel by thedeflection yoke 9, subjected to color selection as theelectron beams 5 pass through slots in theshadow mask 7, and hit thefluorescent film 3 on the inside surface of the panel, to reproduce the video signal. And, in order to prevent the electron beams from being influenced from, and deflected by the geomagnetism in a course of passing through the slot in the shadow mask, and reaching to the fluorescent film, there is aninner shield 10 fitted to a rear side of the frame when it is seen from the panel. - A related art method for fabricating a screen having a color filter film for a color group the same with a fluorescent film formed on an inside surface of a panel for enhancing a luminance and contrast will be explained with reference to FIGS.2A˜2I.
- An inside surface of the
panel 1 is cleaned by using caustic soda and hydrofluoric acid, photoresist (PAD+Azide group) is coated on the inside surface of the panel by whirler, the photoresist is dried, and red, blue and green fluorescent films are exposed on an exposer by using a high pressure mercury lamp, to radiation cure the exposed portions not for using, and developed by pure water at a fixed development pressure of 3˜5 kgf/cm2. And, a coat of graphite is applied thereon, and dried, etched with an etching solution (H2O2+NH4OH), to form a light absorbing film (a black matrix) 101 as shown in FIG. 2A, and, as disclosed in JP publication No. S64-7457, a photosensitive slurry containing a first color (such as blue) pigment is coated on the inside surface of the cathode ray tube to form a first color pigment layer as shown in FIG. 2B. The first color pigment layer is dried (FIG. 2C), and exposed by using an exposure mask, and unexposed portion of which are removed by development, to form the firstcolor pigment layer 102B as shown in FIG. 2D. After formation of a second color (such as green) pigment layer and a third color (such as blue) pigment layer in succession in the same process as the first colorpigment filter layer 102B, a fluorescent layer is formed. That is, a photo sensitive slurry containing a first color (such as blue) fluorescent material particles is coated on the pigment layer as shown in FIG. 2E, to form a first color fluorescent material layer, dried, exposed by using an exposure mask as shown in FIG. 2F, developed, and dried, to remove unexposed portions as shown in FIG. 2G, to form a first colorfluorescent material layer 103B on the firstpigment filter layer 102B. Then, a second colorfluorescent material layer 103G and a third colorfluorescent material layer 103R are formed in succession by the same process as the first fluorescent material layer forming process, to provide thepigment filter layers first layers metal reflection film 104 of aluminum is formed as shown in FIG. 2I. - As an alternative method (JP publication No. H4-26679) to the foregoing related art method for fabricating a screen, in which formation of the pigment layers and the fluorescent material layers are done almost on the same time, by applying a coat of photosensitive slurry containing a first color (for example, blue) to the inside surface of the panel to form a first color pigment layer, applying a coat of photosensitive slurry containing the first color (for example, blue) fluorescent material particles to the first color pigment layer to form a first color fluorescent material layer, exposing and developing the first color pigment layer and the first color fluorescent material layer on the same time by using an exposure mask, to remove unexposed portions to form a first color pigment layer and fluorescent material layer at a position corresponding to the first color. Then, by using the same process, a second color layer (green) and a second fluorescent material layer, and a third color layer (red) and a third fluorescent material layer are formed in succession.
- Because the method disclosed in JP publication No. S64-7457 requires coating, exposure, and development for a photosensitive slurry containing a pigment or a fluorescent material for three color pigments and three color fluorescent material, the method requires two times of steps compared to a case when fluorescent material patterns of fluorescent material having pigment attached thereto, that increases the fabrication cost. And, because the method disclosed in JP publication No. H4-26679 omits exposure and development for the blue, green, and red pigment layers respectively, though the method disclosed in JP publication No. H4-26679 is advantageous in that a production cost is saved since the method disclosed in JP publication No. H4-26679 has less fabrication steps, the omission of the exposure and development of the pigment layer is not favorable for formation of a high quality fluorescent material surface. That is, as the photosensitive slurry in formation of the pigment layer, though a mixed solution of polyvinylalcohol as a photosensitive agent and bichromate as a photo cross linking agent is in general used, if the fluorescent material slurry is coated on an unexposed or undeveloped pigment layer as disclosed in JP publication No. H4-26679, photosensitive components contained in the pigment layer, particularly the bichromate as the photo cross linking agent, start to be dissolved in water contained in the alkali slurry since the bichromate is a material dissolved in water well. As a result of this, when the pigment layer and the fluorescent material layer are exposed, the exposed portion is not cured adequately due to lack of the photo cross linking agent in the pigment layer. And, the fluorescent material layer with a 20˜30 μm thickness before the exposure is too thick to be photo cured adequately when the filter layer and the fluorescent material layer are exposed on the same time. That is, the inadequate cure of the pigment layer leads the pigment layer and the fluorescent material layer susceptible to peeling in development of the pigment layer and the fluorescent material layer after exposure, that impedes formation of a high quality fluorescent material surface.
- Accordingly, the present invention is directed to a method for fabricating a screen in a color CRT that substantially obviates one or more of the problems due to limitations and disadvantages of the related art.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a method for fabricating a screen in a color CRT, which can form a close packed fluorescent material film for enhancing a luminance and cutting characteristics as well as contrast and color purity, and simplifying fabrication process to reduce a production cost.
- Additional features and advantages of the invention will be set forth in the description which follows, and in part will be apparent from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. The objectives and other advantages of the invention will be realized and attained by the structure particularly pointed out in the written description and claims hereof as well as the appended drawings.

In explanation of the present invention, the same components will be given the same name and reference symbols, and explanations for the same will be omitted. FIGS.3A˜3G illustrate sections showing the steps of a method for fabricating a screen in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
- Referring to FIG. 3A, after an inside surface of the panel is cleaned with caustic soda and hydrofluoric acid, a coat of pigment dispersed slurry102′B containing blue pigment (cobalt blue: CoO—Al2O3) with particle sizes ranging 0.02˜0.2 μm, a dispersant, and one of photosensitive agent selected from PVA-SDC group, PVA-ADC group, and PVA-Azide group is applied to the inside surface of the panel at a
liquid viscosity 5 cp˜50 cp/25° C. and 100˜400 rpm, and the coat is dried by a heater. Then, as shown in FIG. 3B, a coat ofphotosensitive resin solution 103′ containing one of photosensitive agent selected from PVA-SDC group, PVA-ADC group, PVA-SBQ group, and PVA-Azide group which contains no adhesive blue fluorescent material is applied to the blue color filter layer by spinning. And, as shown in FIG. 3C, powder of blue fluorescent material is sprayed thereon to form a fluorescent surface. Composition of the pigment dispersed slurry is 55˜90 wt % of pure water, 5˜30 wt % of blue pigment, 0.5˜3 wt % of photosensitive agent, a very small amount of dispersant, and composition of the photosensitive resin solution is 80˜90 wt % of pure water, 0.1˜10 wt % of photosensitive agent, and 0.01˜1.0 wt % of dispersant. As shown in FIG. 3D, after the fluorescent surface is dried, a position of the blue fluorescent film is exposed by using an exposer of a high pressure mercury lamp, to photo cure the blue fluorescent film to be insolvable, and, as shown in FIG. 3E, the fluorescent surface is developed by a pure water with a development pressure of 2˜5 kgf/cm2, to form dotted or striped blue color filter film 102′B and bluefluorescent film 103′B on the same time.

Because the selective transmission of an external light is not adequate if the film thickness is below 0.5 μm, and because the adhesive force of the glass and the pigment film become poor if the film thickness is greater than 3 μm, to damage the pigment film when the photosensitive resin solution is applied for forming the fluorescent film, a good quality of screen can not be obtained. And, the fluorescent film of the present invention has a total thickness of 7˜20 μm, which is formed by coating the photosensitive resin solution and spraying fluorescent material powder with an
average particle size 3˜12 μm thereon to penetrate into the coat, while the fluorescent film of the related art has a thicker thickness of 20˜30 μm as the photosensitive agent is contained in the fluorescent material slurry. Accordingly, though the related art fluorescent film has a rough cutting characteristics, the fluorescent film of the present invention having a thickness thinner than the same of the related art has an excellent exposure strength in exposure, and a cutting characteristics three times better than the same of the related art as a boundary region of the film formed when the film is exposed and developed is little. - Referring to FIG. 4, the method for fabricating a screen in a color CRT of the present invention permits to provide a high quality color cathode ray tube having improved characteristics of a contrast, a luminance, and a color purity as the screen selectively reflects an external light through the filter layer, and selectively transmits a light emitted from the fluorescent material. Table 1 below shows a comparison of luminances and contrasts of a color filter tube of the present invention and a related art color filter tube with the related art slurry having the color filter films and fluorescent films of the present invention and the related art respectively for models having the same glass transmission factors at 26 kV and 600 mA applied current.
TABLE 1 The present invention The related art Luminance 39.7(109.6%) 36.2FL(100%) Contrast 27.8(102.2%) 27.2(100%) - As has been explained, the method for fabricating a screen in a color CRT of the present invention can provide a screen having a luminance enhanced by 5˜10%, improved cutting characteristics, contrast and color purity, and a low cost owing to a simplified fabrication process, by forming pigment layers on an inside surface of a panel of the color cathode ray tube, coating a photosensitive resin solution thereon, coating powder of fluorescent material thereon, and exposing and developing the pigment layers and the fluorescent films on the same time, thereby forming a thin fluorescent film with an excellent packing to form a close packed structure.
- It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the method for fabricating a screen in a color CRT of the present invention without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Thus, it is intended that the present invention cover the modifications and variations of this invention provided they come within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents.
