A picture display device comprises an evacuated envelope and is provided at a first side with an electroluminescent display screen and at an opposite side with an electron gun (6). Between the electron gun (6) and the display screen, the device comprises deflection means with which an electron beam generated by the electron gun (6) can be deflected during operation. The electron gun (6) has at least an electron beam-generating portion (20) and is provided with a main lens system (40) having a first electrode (41), a final electrode (45) and at least one intermediate electrode (42-44) across which a main lens voltage is gradually applied step-wise during operation so as to form an electron-optical main focusing lens. The intermediate electrode(s) (42-44) comprise a plurality of separate parts (421-423, 431-433, 441-443) whose main faces are positioned against each other and are interconnected.
A picture display device comprising an envelope containing an luminescent display screen and an electron gun for producing at least one electron beam for deflection across the display screen, said electron gun comprising a main lens system having a first electrode, a second electrode, and at least one intermediate electrode disposed between said first and second electrodes, each of said electrodes having at least one aperture for passing the at least one electron beam, said at least one intermediate electrode comprising substantially identical, conductive first and second plates and means for conductively attaching said plates to each other with the at least one aperture in the first plate aligned with the at least one aperture in the second plate, where the at least one aperture in each of the first and second plates has a predetermined diameter and where the thickness of the at least one intermediate electrode is between 30% and 40% of said predetermined diameter.
A picture display device comprising an envelope containing an luminescent display screen and an electron gun for producing at least one electron beam for deflection across the display screen, said electron gun comprising a main lens system having a first electrode, a second electrode spaced apart from the first electrode, and at least one intermediate electrode disposed between said first and second electrodes, said at least one intermediate electrode comprising an odd number of apertured plates including:
