Abstract: A main lens is composed of a dynamic focus electrode, a first auxiliary electrode, a second auxiliary electrode and an anode, which are successively arranged in a direction of travel of electron beams. A sub-lens provided on a cathode side of the main lens is composed of a third grid, a fourth grid and a fifth grid. The first auxiliary electrode is connected to the fourth grid, and both are connected to a voltage supply terminal on a resistor near the fourth grid. A fixed focus voltage is applied to the third grid and fifth grid sandwiching the fourth grid.

Abstract: In a cathode ray tube apparatus, an electron beam generating section for generating electron beams is composed of a cathode and a plurality of electrodes. Two electrodes of the plurality of electrodes are connected to each other via a resistor. A constant voltage is supplied from the outside of the tube to the one electrode, and a voltage dynamically changed in synchronism with a deflection magnetic field is supplied to an electrode adjacent to the other electrode. Therefore, the shape of a beam spot can be improved, and the resolution of the entire screen can be improved without requiring extensive provision of a lead wire of a stem.

Abstract: A second grid is supplied with a low potential acceleration voltage. A fourth grid and a sixth grid are supplied with a first focus voltage. A third grid and a seventh grid are supplied with a dynamic focus voltage (Vf2+Vd). A prefocus lens having a horizontal and vertical focusing function is formed between the second grid and the third grid. An asymmetrical lens section having a horizontal diverging function and a vertical focusing function is formed between the third grid and the fourth grid. The prefocus lens and the asymmetrical lens section are electrostatically coupled.

Abstract: A sixth grid, which is part of a main electron lens section, is made up of a first anode, an auxiliary electrode and a second anode. A fifth grid is applied with an intermediate voltage. The first and second anodes are applied with an anode voltage. An intermediate electrode and the auxiliary electrode are applied with a voltage whose level is between the levels of the intermediate voltage and anode voltage.

Abstract: In a color cathode ray tube, the outer diameter of a neck is set at 22 mm-23 mm, the diameter of a pin circle formed by stem pins outside the flare section of a stem welded to an end of the neck is set at a nominal value of 15.24 mm, and the maximum diameter of a base adhered to an outer surface of the stem is set at 23 mm or less. Accordingly, while the neck outer diameter is reduced to reduce the power consumption of the color cathode ray tube, the color cathode ray tube has a high resolution.

Abstract: A cathode structure of an electron gun includes a rectangular insulating substrate made of an anisotropically heat decomposable boron nitride, a cathode base mounted on one surface of the insulating substrate with a conductive layer interposed therebetween, and a heater prepared by patterning an anisotropically heat decomposable graphite film formed on the other surface of the insulating substrate. A slit is formed in each of the end portions of the insulating substrate, and the end portions of the insulating substrate are fixed to support members of a holder by ribbons wound on the end portion so the insulating substrate with being passed through the slits.
