Abstract: A face-plate of an image pick-up tube having a plurality of electrodes formed thereon and a plurality of conductors provided for external connection extending from said plurality of electrodes across the outer periphery of the face plate to the outer surface thereof. At least one of the plurality of conductors for said external connection comprises a thin film which is electrically insolated from the other conductors by a thin insulating film formed thereon. This thin insulating film also serves to seal, in an air tight manner, a vacuum envelope together with the conductor or conductors for external connection extending to the outer surface of the face-plate.
