  • the beams 44 may only approach each other and be mutually reflected from each other and thus appear to diverge from a virtual crossover point 42. Or, as shown in Figure 3b the beams may actually cross over one another but again appear to diverge from a virtual point 42.
  • a second accelerating electrode 46 operated at a voltage in the order of 18,000 volts.

  • the accelerating electrode 46 is electrically tied to the conductive wall coating 50 by spring fingers 52 fastened to electrode 46 and making spring contact with the conductive coating 50.
  • coil 54 has a double function: the plurality of electron beams 44 emerging from the common cross over point 42 are brought to a point of common convergence on the fluorescent screen 48, and also, the electrons of each beam are focussed within the beams themselves so that each beam is brought to a small spot at the common point of beam convergence.
  • the result is similar to that described in the application of Hannah C. Moodey, Serial No. 166,416, filed June 6, 1950.
  • a conventional type deflecting yoke 56 is used for scanning the electron beams 44 simultaneously over the surface of the fluorescent screen 48 in any desired manner.
  • Defiecting yoke 56 consists normally of two pairs of deflecting coils, each pair connected together in series to a source of sawtooth voltages for providing respectively line and frame scansion of the beam over the screen surface, The structure and function of such a deflection yoke is conventional and well known.
  • the gun structure is different from that shown in Figure 1.
  • a tubular accelerating electrode ,58 Spaced along the axis of the tube is a tubular accelerating electrode ,58 adapted to be operated at around 4,300 volts.
  • a wall coating 51 similar to that disclosed in the tube of Figure 1 extends down the neck portion 14 of the tube envelope and overlaps the adjacent end of the accelerating tubular electrode 58.
  • the wall coating 51 is operated in the order of 18,000 volts to provide between it and the accelerating electrode 58 an electrostatic focussing and converging field.
  • the cathode surfaces are symmetrically disposed with respect to tube axis 20 and the other gun parts all coaxially fixed to the tube neck 14, so that beams 44 enter the field between electrodes 58 and 51 symmetrically spaced from the field axis.
  • this focussing field causes the electron beams 44 to converge on the common axis and also brings each beam 44 to a focus point at the fluorescent screen.
  • the electrostatic field between electrodes 58 and 51 is used for simultaneous beam convergence and beam focussing.
  • FIG. 4 there is disclosed a gun structure comprising a plurality of cathode electrodes 60, which are essentially tubular members having filamentary heaters 62, therein for heating the respective cathodes to electron emitting temperatures.

  • Surrounding the cathodes 60 is a common control grid 68 similar to electrode 28 disclosed on Figures 1 and 2.
  • control electrode 68 has a depressed or concave wall portion 70 extending down over the emitting cathode surfaces 64 and closely spaced at a uniform distance from the cathode surfaces.
  • each emitting cathode surface 64 there is positioned an aperture through the wall portion 70 to provide passage therethrough of electrons from the cathodes.
  • a tubular accelerating electrode 74 Spaced along axis 66 and similar to electrode 36, shown in Figures 1 and 2, is a tubular accelerating electrode 74 having wall portion 76 with a central aperture 78. Portions of wall 76 forming aperture 78 extend into the concave portion 70 of electrode 68.
  • the electrodes shown in Figure 4 form the electrons emitted by cathode portions 64 into beams having a common crossover point on the axis 66. The beams diverge from this common crossover point as a plurality of beams which may be brought to a common point of convergence and focus as described above for Figures 1 and 2.
  • FIG. 5 shows a plurality of cathode electrodes 80, similar to electrodes 18 of Figures 1 and 2 but positioned with their axes in a common plane rather than parallel to each other.
  • the cathode emitting surfaces 82 retain the same relative positions as the emitting surfaces 22 in Figure 2. With this arrangement, the overall length of the gun structure may be decreased. Leads 84 from the cathode heaters 86 are brought out through the sides of the cathode cylinders. Also, the control grid 88 is considerably shortened in its length and is also closed by a wall portion 90 at its lower end. However, the control portion 92 overlying the cathode emitting surfaces has the same configuration as shown in the previous modifications. Also, an accelerating electrode 94 is identical to previously described accelerating electrodes 36 and 76. The formation of the electron beams with the structure of Figure 5 is identical to that described above for the other modifications.
  • FIGS 6 and 7 show a sectional view of an alternate form of gun structure for providing a plurality of electron beams.
  • a cathode 96 consists of a single tubular member closed at its upper end by a conical shaped wall 98. The outer surface of the conical wall 98 is coated with oxide materials for providing a source of electrons.
  • Cathode tube 96 is mounted on a ceramic spacer 99 which is fixed within a control grid cylinder 97 by being clamped between a spacer ring and a retainer ring 93 welded to the control grid wall 97.
  • the end of the control grid adjacent the electron emitting portion 98 is closed by a wall portion 91 having a conical concave portion 89 closely spaced uniformly from the cathode emitting portion 98.
  • the concave wall portion 89 of the control grid has a plurality of apertures 87 overlying the cathode emitting surface 98 for the passage of electrons therethrough.
  • Axially spaced from the control grid 97 is an accelerating grid electrode 85 having a central opening 83 arranged'coaxially with the cathode and control electrode members.
  • the periphery portions forming aperture 83 of the accelerating grid 85 are bent downward as is shown in Figure 7 to partially extend into the cavity of the control grid wall portion 89.
  • Axially spaced from accelerating grid 85 is a second accelerating electrode 79, formed, as is shown in Figure 6.
  • Spring fingers 77 space the gun structure from the tube neck 14 as Well as center the gun on the neck axis.
  • a conductive coating 75 similar to wall coating of Figure 2 is used as a third accelerating and focussing electrode and extends from the gun structure to a point adjacent the fluorescent screen at the other end of the tube (not shown).
  • the three control grid apertures 87 are positioned in a triangular arrangement.
  • the apertures 87 were substantially, 31 mils in diameter and the control grid wall 89 was spaced substantially 5 mils from the cathode emitting portion 98.
  • the accelerating electrode 85 was spaced substantially 40 mils from the control grid electrode 97.
  • the slope of the conical wall portions 89 and 98. were approximately 45 from the vertical. This arrangement of parts was such that the electrons passing through the grid apertures 87 were brought to a common crossover point on the gun axis. From this common point the electrons from each aperture 87 emerged as a beam.
  • the focussing field between electrodes 79 and 75 provided a field for bringing the beams to a common point of convergence at the fluorescent screen. Furthermore, thisfield focusses the electrons in each beam to a fine point at the common point of beam convergence.
  • the angle that the cathode emitting surfaces made with the gun axis has been described as substantially 45. This particular angle is not limiting but is one which has proved satisfactory. If the angle of the cathode surface to the axis of the gun is made sharper or smaller it would be necessary to increase the accelerating electrode voltage to bring the crossover point of the several beams to a common point on the tube axis.
  • the distance of the crossover point of each beam from the cathode surface is determined by the size of the control grid aperture as well as by the cathode-to-control grid spacing.
  • the crossover points of the beams can be brought to a common point on the axis by positioning the cathode emitting surfaces at the-required angle to the gun axis and also spacing the cathode emitting surfaces from each other the proper distance.
  • the voltage of the accelerating'electrode also determines the angle of beam divergence from. the gun axis. Thus, adjustment of the accelerating electrodevoltage is made to conform with the strength of the focussing coil field as well as the length of the tube.
  • Plural beam electron guns also may be used in such applications as color television picture tubes.
  • the modifications of Figures 1 and 2 for example may be substituted for the gun structure shown in the tube disclosed in the above cited application of Hannah C. Moodey.
  • the phosphor screen of the tube in the Moodey application consists of dots of phosphor material arranged in groups of three.
  • the phosphor dots of any one group fluoresce respectively with a red, green or blue color when struck by an electron beam.
  • Spaced from the fluorescent screen is a vmasking plate having an aperture positionedabove the center of each group of three phosphor dots.
  • three electron beamsare used each beam coming from a diflerentdi'rection so that the electrons from the beams in passing through an aperture of the masking screen will strike only one of the three dots depending upon the direction of the electron beam.
  • the gun structures shown in Figures 1 and 2 may consistof three cathode electrodes spaced from each other in a triangular arrangement and with a control grid electrode 18 having three apertures 34 to provide three beams. Each beam then will approach the masking electrode of the color'tube from a different angle and will strike only the phosphor dot fluorescing with a single color.
  • the .color signals used to modulate each beam respectively can be applied between each of the cathode electrodes and the control grid electrode 28.
  • the central grid 91 in the tube of Figures 6 and.7 may be madein several parts, each part with a single control aperture 87.v The signal modulations can then be applied between cathode 96 and each control grid part respectively.
