  • Patent number: 6030707
    Abstract: The present invention aims to solve problems involved in the formation of a conductive or insulating layer in a pattern form by photolithography, i.e., an environmental problem associated with handling of a solvent and a problem associated with wastewater treatment in the development with an aqueous alkaline solution. A method for forming a conductive layer (an anode bus 3) or an insulating layer (a barrier 1) on a glass substrate by photolithography using a photosensitive slurry solution prepared by mixing a low-melting glass powder as a binder and a conductive or insulating powder into a PVA-based, water-soluble photosensitive solution, wherein the content of B.sub.2 O.sub.3 component in the whole low-melting glass powder is closely regulated to not more than 6% by weight. This enables coating without gelation of PVA.

  • Patent number: 4798992
    Abstract: A color cathode-ray tube where an electron beam selection mask with an aperture grille type beam selection electrode of a thin metal plate attached to a frame is supported by engagement of stud pins with support springs and is thereby positioned stably opposite to a color luminescent screen formed on the inner surface of a panel. A projection is formed on either the top of each stud pin or the bottom of each cap opposed thereto, while a recess is formed in the other for engagement with the projection in the direction orthogonal to the action of the support spring. The mutual contact portions of such projection and recess are coated with solid lubricant films so that the beam selection mask can be reset at its proper position despite any external impact applied thereto.

  • Patent number: 4600397
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method of producing a discharge display device which enables formation of a satisfactory LaB.sub.6 cathode without using a LaB.sub.6 paste containing a glass binder. The method of the present invention comprises the steps of applying a conductive paste containing a glass binder, temporarily drying said conductive paste to form a conductive paste layer, forming a LaB.sub.6 layer containing no glass binder on said conductive paste layer, burning said conductive paste layer and said LaB.sub.6 layer, at the same time, and activating said LaB.sub.6 layer after being burnt, and after an exhausting step by gas discharge with large current to form a LaB.sub.6 cathode.
