  • Patent number: 5751100
    Abstract: An electron gun for a color cathode ray tube taking a multi-level focusing form includes a focusing electrode and a pre-focusing electrode. The distances between the centers of the apertures of the focusing electrode are larger than the distances between the corresponding apertures of the pre-focusing electrode. The electron gun further includes a post-focusing electrode. The distances between the centers of the apertures of the focusing electrode are larger than those of the corresponding apertures of the post-focusing electrode. But, the center distances between the apertures of the pre-focusing electrode are equal to the center distances between the corresponding apertures of the post-focusing electrode. The post-focusing electrode is partitioned from the focusing electrode.
