Abstract: A PDP operates with high luminous efficiency and reproduces colors faithfully. When sealing the PDP, a sealant layer (15) is formed around the facing main surfaces of the front panel (10) and the back panel (20). Protrusions (16) and depressions (17) are formed in parts of the sealant layer (15) to produce gaps (18) at the periphery of the PDP. The heating performed to soften the sealant layer (15) is conducted in a dry gas atmosphere. As a result, moisture passes from the inner space of the PDP through the gaps (18) and out of the PDP, thereby reducing the heat deterioration in the blue phosphor layer (25).

Abstract: The present invention concerns a cathode ray display tube in which the layers of a scattered electrons suppressing material are formed on the surface of a metal back layer on a phosphor layer and the inner surface of a funnel part. Each of the scattered electrons suppressing material layers on the surface of the metal back layer and on the inner surface of the funnel part is formed with an amount per unit area within specific ranges. The scattered electrons suppressing material layer is provided to form a laminated layer which is composed of lamina shaped graphite particles with a diameter which is ten times or more as large as a thickness and an average particle size in terms of spherical volume not more than 2 .mu.m. The scattered electrons suppressing material layers reduce unnecessary light emission due to scattered electrons and improve the contrast of a display image. A projection display system providing a display image with high contrast can be constituted by using the cathode display tubes.
