Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cathode ray tube comprising an electron gun system for producing a plurality of electron beams, having at least two common, substantially circularcylindrical and substantially coaxial electrodes whose axes do not coincide with the axis of one or more electron beams and comprising a display screen.
  • the invention particularly relates to such a cathode ray tube comprising a display screen having a plurality of differently luminescing substances and a color selection electrode arranged at a short distance from the display screen, while the electron gun system produces a number of electron beams corresponding with the number of luminescing substances, which beams are caused to converge in the plane of the color selection electrode at least by means of a lens field obtained by means of the common, substantially circularly cylindrical electrodes.
  • each of the electron beams is focused on the display screen or at least on a plane located near said screen, for example that of the color selection electrode. This is performed partly by the lens effect between successive grids of the gun or ofthe guns, which thus provide a prefocusing effeet.
  • the lens effect obtained with the aid of the common, substantially circular-cylindrical electrodes causes the electron beams to converge substantially in the plane of the color selection electrode, for example. a shadow-mask electrode.
  • This lens effect can be obtained by means of a substantially circular-cylindrical grid and a conductive coating on the envelope, with the aid oftwo substantially circular-cylindrical grids having, in a particular case, substantially equal diameters, or with the aid of more than two substantially circular-cylindrical grids.
  • This lens effect provides, in addition, the required postfocusing of each electron beam.
  • Such an electrostatic converging system is particularly employed when the beams are closely adjacent each other, because in this case little space is available for the pole pieces required for magnetic convergence. This may apply to a cathode ray tube in which the various electron beams are produced by a single gun.
  • the dynamic convergence may be dispensed with in the case of a given type of deflection coil, provided the electron beams in the gun are located substantially in one plane.
  • the rays of the beam located in the plane containing the axis of the beam and the axis of the cylinder are focused towards the axis of the beam to a stronger extent as a result of the spherical aberration of the lens than the rays located in the plane containing the axis of the beam and being perpendicular to the first plane.
  • a plane going through the axis of the cylinder is termed a meridional plane of the lens and the said plane going through the axis of the beam and the axis of the cylinder is therefore the meridional plane of the lens containing the axis of the beam.
  • the rays of the beam located in said plane are termed the meridional rays.
  • a plane at right angles to the meridional planes of the lens is termed the sagittal plane of the lens and the rays contained in such a plane are termed the sagittal rays.
  • the rays contained in said plane going through the axis ofthe beam and being perbeam axis have to be considered to be sagittal rays.
  • the invention is based on the recognition of the fact that the difference in post-focusing of the meridional rays and the sagittal rays of a beam whose axis is located outside the cylinder axis may be reduced by a defined disturbance of the rotation-symmetry.
  • the axes of the electron beams and the substantially circular-cylindrical electrodes are located substantially in a flat plane, the axis of one beam substantially coincides with the axes of the substantially circular-cylindrical electrodes and the distances between the line forming an effective boundary line of the substantially circular-cylindrical electrodes and the display screen at the area of the points of intersection with said plane are relative maxima and greater than the average distance and the distances at the area of the points of intersection with the plane perpendicular thereto and going through the axes of the electrodes are relative maxima.
  • the term "effective boundary line of the substantially circular-cylindrical electrode” if the lens effect is obtained with the aid of one substantially circular-cylindrical grid and a conductive coating on the envelope, the diameter of the grid is smaller than the diameter of the relative part of the envelope and the conductive coating on the envelope usually overlaps a part of the grid.
  • the effective boundary line is in this case the line located within the conductive coating and which the end of the grid describes on the cylinder.
  • the effective boundary line in this case also is the line which, the end of the grid describes on the cylinder of the smaller diameter.
  • the effective boundary line is the line passing through the centers of the gap formed between the end of one electrode and the projection of the end of the other electrode on the cylinder plane of one electrode. With two grids of equal diameters the effective boundary line is the line passing through the centers of the gap between the grids.
  • the desired effect is based on the fact that the cross-sections of the equipotential planes with sagittal planes in the area of the axis of a beam located outside of the cylinder axis are curved so that the concave side faces the display screen so that an intensifted focusing of the sagittal rays is produced.
  • the crosssections of the equipotential planes with meridional planes in the area of the beam axis are curved so that the con vex side faces the display screen so that a reduced focusing of the meridional rays is produced.
  • the post-focusing difference of the meridional and sagittsl rays of such a beam is reduced. If desired, the sagittal rays and the meridional rays are substantially focused at one point with the appropriate proportioning.
  • the distances between the line forming an effective boundary line of the substantially circular-cylindrical electrodes and the display screen at the area of the points of intersection with the plane perpendicular to the plane containing pendicular to the meridional plane of the lens containing the the axes of the electron hem and going through the axis of map-m the electrodes are relative maxima.
  • the distance at said areas is particularly substantially equal to the distance at the area of the point of intersection with the plane going through the axes of the electron beams.
  • the strength of the converging lens in two orthogonal planes going through the axis of the cylinder is in this case invariably the same so that the field has four planes of symmetry. which is a favorable situation for the beam whose axis coincides with that of the cylinder.
  • the effective boundary line may have different shapes. It may have a square-wave form.
  • the boundary line preferably has a flowing shape. because this results in a more gradual variation of the equipotential planes. In the particular case in which the distance between the effective boundary line and the dis lay screen has four equal maxima. the effective boundary line preferably has a sinusoidal shape, because the variation of the equipotential planes is then as gradual as possible.
  • the effective boundary line coincides with an end of a rid. this end should show the said variation. If the effective boundary line coincides with a line passing through the centers of the gap as described above. the said variation may be obtained by profiling only one of the ends of the electrodes determining the gap and by arranging the other end in a plane normal to the axis of the electrodes. Both ends may be profiled. as an alternative. namely particularly as complementury profile.
  • the beams. after having lcfl the prcfocusing lens. are not stigmatic.
  • said shape of the effective boundary line permits of obviating the astigmatism so that also in the case circular electron spots are obtained for all beams on the display screen.
  • the elongated electron spots can. however. be obtained by the described shape of the effective boundary line.
  • the distances between the line forming an effective boundary line of the substantially circular-cylindrical electrodes and the display screen at the and of the points of intersection with the plane normal to the plane containing the axes of the electron beams and passing through the axes of the electrodes are not equal to the distances at the area of the points of intersection with the lane going through the axes of the electron beams.
  • the effective boundary line then has in particular the shape of two supcrimposcd sine lines. the period of one being included twice and the period of the other being included four times in the boundary line. In this way the boundary line has a smooth shape.
