Patent number: 5340674Abstract: A luminescent screen assembly for a CRT is made by first coating the interior surface of a faceplate panel with a photoconductive layer which overlies a conductive layer. A multiplicity of red-, green- and blue-emitting phosphor screen elements are then deposited in color groups, in a cyclic order, onto the interior surface of the panel. A negative charge is then established on the photoconductive layer. The charge is weakened in the areas where the photoconductive layer underlies the phosphor screen elements, but unaffected in the open areas separating the phosphor screen elements. The charged, open areas of the photoconductive layer are discharged by flood illumination and reversal developed by depositing thereon particles of light-absorptive matrix material having a triboelectric charge of the same polarity as the charge established on the photoconductive layer. The novel process provides a high opacity matrix.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 1993Date of Patent: August 23, 1994Assignee: Thomson Consumer Electronics, Inc.Inventors: John J. Moscony, George M.

When the color filter layer that constitutes one portion of a phosphor screen of a color cathode ray tube is formed in this manner, an adhesive force with which the color filter layer is bonded onto the panel can be increased and a transmittance of the color filter layer can be improved.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 1993Date of Patent: August 23, 1994Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Norihiro Tateyama, Katsutoshi Ohno, Tsuneo Kusunoki

Patent number: 5338629Abstract: A method is disclosed for manufacturing photostencils used in screening the faceplates of color cathode ray tubes. The photostencils are produced as progeny from a parent stencil photo plotted according to the dictates of a proximity photoprinting process in conjunction with the electron optical characteristics of the operational CRT. A rectangular beam is used for radiating light through the pattern of features on the parent stencil onto the photoresist of the progeny stencil. As a result, the features of the progeny stencil differ in size or shape or both, from those of the parent stencil.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 1992Date of Patent: August 16, 1994Assignee: Zenith Electronics CorporationInventors: Robert A.

Patent number: 5336587Abstract: In order to manufacture a pair of main plates closely contacted with both the faces of a member to be exposed to light, patterns are drawn on a pair of original dry plates by a main pattern drawing device and developed. Thereafter, the developed pattern formed on one of the pair of original dry plates is successively transcribed even times in such a manner that a transcribed pattern having just formed on a newly supplied dry plate at a prior transcription is now transcribed to a fleshly supplied dry plate at a next transcription, and the developed pattern formed on the other one of the pair of original dry plate is successively transcribed odd times in such a manner that a transcribed pattern having just formed on a newly supplied dry plate at a prior transcription is now transcribed to a fleshly supplied dry plate at a next transcription, thereby forming a pair of main plates.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 1993Date of Patent: August 9, 1994Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventors: Hiroshi Tanaka, Makoto Kudou

Patent number: 5326663Abstract: According to this invention, there is provided an improved method of manufacturing a shadow mask obtained by independently etching both the surfaces of a metal substrate. After one surface is etched to form a first opening, an etching resistive agent composition containing an acrylic resin, casein, and a leveling agent is applied to the obtained opening to form an etching resistive layer. Subsequently, the other surface is etched to form a second opening in the other surface, and then the etching resistive layer is removed to cause the first and second openings to communicate with each other.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 1992Date of Patent: July 5, 1994Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventors: Hiroshi Tanaka, Makoto Kudou, Katsumi Ichikawa

Patent number: 5324602Abstract: A method for fabricating a cathode ray tube is described. The method comprises the steps of selectively forming a resist layer corresponding to a pattern of a fluorescent material on an inner surface of the panel of a cathode ray tube, and applying a slurry of a light-absorbing material on the entire inner surface of the panel including the resist layer to form a light-absorbing layer. An inorganic pigment slurry is applied over the entire inner surface of the panel to form an inorganic pigment layer on the light-absorbing layer and then subjected to reverse development to selectively remove the resist layer along with the light-absorbing layer and the white pigment layer, thereby forming a matrix pattern. Finally, a fluorescent material is applied to individual removed portions of the matrix pattern to form a fluorescent pattern. Monochromatic or color cathode ray tubes are obtained with an improved luminance and a colorimetric purity by a simple procedure.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 1990Date of Patent: June 28, 1994Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Koki Inada, Norihiro Tateyama, Osamu Dobashi

Patent number: 5240798Abstract: A luminescent screen assembly for a CRT is made by first coating the interior surface of a faceplate panel with a photoconductive layer which overlies a conductive layer. A multiplicity of red-, green- and blue-emitting phosphor screen elements are then deposited in color groups, in a cyclic order, onto the interior surface of the panel. A substantially uniform charge is established on the photoconductive layer. The charge is weakened in the areas where the photoconductive layer underlies the phosphor screen elements, but unaffected in the open areas separating the phosphor screen elements. The charged open areas of the photoconductive layer are directly developed by depositing thereon particles of light-absorptive matrix material having a triboelectric charge opposite in polarity to the charge established on the photoconductive layer.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 1992Date of Patent: August 31, 1993Assignee: Thomson Consumer ElectronicsInventor: George M.
