Abstract: In order to nullify the adverse effect of an external magnetic field on a static magnetic field generated in an MRI system, small-size coils are used to generate a compensation magnetic field. Thus, the component of the static magnetic field to be applied to a magnetic sensor is canceled. The magnetic sensor can therefore detect the external magnetic field highly precisely. A correction current proportional to the external magnetic field detected highly precisely is fed to BO correction coils. Eventually, the external magnetic field that adversely affects the static magnetic field is canceled.

Abstract: In a deflection yoke for use in a color cathode ray tube receiver, two sets of sextuple pole coils formed of bifilar windings are disposed around the orbits of three electron beams emitted from an electron gun of a cathode ray tube. Horizontal-period parabolic currents produced in a bridge circuit consisting of saturable reactors are caused to flow in such sextuple pole coils. Further the parabolic currents are modulated at the vertical period by the saturable reactor. Then sextuple-pole magnetic fields are generated by the modulated parabolic currents to thereby exert vertical force on the three electron beams, hence realizing proper correction of &Dgr;VCR to consequently optimize the balance between the corners and the center of a screen. Such optimization is conventionally difficult due to some restrictions existing in the winding distribution of a vertical deflection coil and a horizontal deflection coil in relation to convergence and focus of side beams.

The directions of the pulses are determined so that the electric field produced by the emitter reverses the field produced by the display device.

Abstract: A linearity correction coil device and a video display apparatus using the same are disclosed. In a video display apparatus having a cathode-ray tube, a deflecting yoke for deflecting the electron beam and a linearity correction coil device for compensating a linearity of the electron beam, the linearity correction coil device is horizontally installed on a printed circuit board for the cathode-ray tube, and wherein a vertical length of said linearity correction coil in an intersecting direction to a progressive direction of the electron beam has a shorter length than a horizontal length of said linearity correction coil device in a parallel direction to the progressive direction of the electron beam. Accordingly, it is able to prevent the electron beam from running off a normal orbit by a magnetic field generated from the linearity correction coil device. Therefore, since the electron beam exactly collides with fluorescent material, it is able to prevent a stained image from showing on the cathode-ray tube.
