The shielding plate (2) is placed so that an opening wall surface (2HS) thereof is positioned on an optical path (Zr(x)) of light emerging from an optical window (14) at a usable angle (&thgr;e) and that a half width (Xu) of the opening (2H) satisfies Xu=u/cot(&thgr;e)+t×sin(&thgr;e)/sgrt(ng2−sin2(&thgr;e))+s. The optical window retainer (15) is placed in a region outside a boundary line given as Zh(x)=±(1×tan(&thgr;e)(x±Xu)+u (plus (+) when x≦−Xu; minus (−) when x≧Xu) and also in aregion outside the optical path (Zr(x)). The light source device suppresses an uneven illuminance distribution of exposure light resulting from superimposition of light scattered from the opening wall surface of the optical window retainer upon the exposure light.

Abstract: An apparatus for patterning a phosphor screen on the faceplate of a cathode-ray tube has a main lens that refracts light to simulate electron-beam trajectories. The main lens includes a fixed lens with a curved surface, and at least one replaceable flat element. The apparatus also has at least one sub-lens, with a curved surface, that can be substituted for the flat element to compensate for inaccurate simulation of the electron-beam trajectories. The flat element and the sub-lens have the same thickness, so that substitution of the one for the other does not produce an unintended shifting of light paths. Preferred sub-lenses include lenses having surfaces described by a bilaterally symmetric cosine function, and by a product of a sine function and a linear function.

In a yet further form, an angle of incidence of the light beam is properly adjusted such that a portion of the light beam, which is first reflected from the mask and escapes outwardly from the reflector, is minimized.
