Patent number: 6759800Abstract: A photocathode as a source of electron beams, having a substrate of optically transmissive diamond and a photoemitter. A photocathode with a single emitting region provides a single electron beam; a photocathode with multiple emitting regions provides multiple electron beams. The photoemitter is positioned on the side of the diamond substrate opposite the surface on which the illumination is incident, and has an irradiation region at the contact with the optically transmissive diamond, and an emission region opposite the irradiation region, these regions being defined by the path of the illumination. The diamond substrate at the irradiation region/emission region interface conducts heat away from this focused region of illumination on the photocathode. Alternately, a diamond film is used for heat conduction, while another material is used as a substrate to provide structural support.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 1999Date of Patent: July 6, 2004Assignee: Applied Materials, Inc.Inventors: Andres Fernandez, Timothy Thomas, Xiaolan Chen, Steven T.

Patent number: 6741016Abstract: An electron lens is used for focusing electrons from a cathode to an anode. The lens includes a first conductive layer with a first opening at a first distance from the cathode. The first conductive layer is held at a first voltage. The lens also includes a second conductive layer with a second opening at a second distance from the first conductive layer and a third distance from the anode. The second conductive layer is held at a second voltage substantially equal to the voltage of the anode. The first and second openings are chosen based on the first voltage, the second voltage, the first distance, the second distance and the third distance. The opening focuses the electrons emitted from the cathode onto the anode to a spot size preferably less than 40 nanometers. The force created between the cathode and anode is minimized by the structure of the lens.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2001Date of Patent: May 25, 2004Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Paul J.

Patent number: 6729927Abstract: A method for making a shadow mask array is taught. Producing a plurality of shadow mask sections; inspecting the plurality of shadow mask sections to determine which shadow mask sections are acceptable as meeting predetermined criteria; positioning a predetermined number of the acceptable mask sections into predetermined locations relative to one another to form a mask section array thereby distributing any error in individual mask sections across the mask section array; and attaching the individual mask sections of the mask section array to a support structure. The support structure allows for expansion and/or contraction of the individual mask sections of the mask section array while maintaining relative positioning of the individual shadow mask section in the shadow mask array.Type: GrantFiled: August 1, 2002Date of Patent: May 4, 2004Assignee: Eastman Kodak CompanyInventors: Joseph E.

Patent number: 6722938Abstract: A shadow mask is formed from a plate member comprising an outer frame portion, a body portion of a shadow mask having an outer peripheral line formed through an etching process and a plurality of connection portions through which the body portion of the shadow mask is supported by the outer frame portion. The shadow mask is formed from the plate member by removing the outer frame portion from the body portion of the shadow mask. In this process, a break portion is formed to the shadow mask by removing the outer frame portion so as to be recessed inward from the outer peripheral line of the shadow mask.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2000Date of Patent: April 20, 2004Assignee: Dai Nippon Printing Co., Ltd.Inventors: Takayasu Komatsu, Hiromitsu Ochiai, Akira Makita, Hirofumi Hideshima, Takuya Ogio, Toshimu Watanabe

Patent number: 6630778Abstract: A color cathode ray tube includes a transparent panel, a funnel joined airtightly to a circumference portion of a sidewall of the panel, a light absorption layer (black layer) and an optical filter layer both disposed on an interior surface of the transparent panel, and a phosphor layer formed thereon. A length from an edge of the panel joined to the funnel to a circumference edge of the light absorption layer formed on an interior surface of the sidewall of the panel is longer than or equal with that from the edge of the panel to a circumference edge of the optical filter layer formed similarly on an interior surface of the sidewall of the panel. The color cathode ray tube can be manufactured by making a length from an edge of the panel to a scraping edge of the light absorption layer in the trimming step of the light absorption layer longer than or equal with that from the edge of the panel to a scraping edge of the filter layer in the trimming step of the filter layer.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 2001Date of Patent: October 7, 2003Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventors: Koji Washiyama, Keisuke Iida, Masaaki Inamura

Publication number: 20030171061Abstract: A welding route of welding a color selecting electrode to a frame is as follows: first of all, a welding head moves down onto one end portion of a long frame side (Step I), welding is conducted from the end portion toward a center portion of the long frame side (Step II). Then, after moving up once (Step III), the welding head moves horizontally toward the other end portion of the long frame side (Step IV) and moves down onto the long frame side (Step V), and welding is conducted from the other end portion toward a center portion of the long frame side (Step VI). Finally, the welding head retracts (Step VII). With this welding route, the generation of wrinkles in the vicinity of the end portions of the long sides of the color selecting electrode can be suppressed.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 10, 2002Publication date: September 11, 2003Inventors: Kiyohito Miwa, Toshifumi Nakatani, Tutomu Utsumi
