Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A photosensitive film applied onto the inner surface of a faceplate of color picture tube is exposed to light through a shadow mask. The exposed portions of the photosensitive film are further hardened by the photo-cross linking property until they exhibit hydrophobic property.

The surplus light absorbing material deposited on the further hardened portions is removed by development, whereby a black matrix surface can be obtained having a pattern of the light absorbing material adhered to the faceplate.
