Abstract
An improved resin layer used in the manufacture of cathode ray tube assemblies incorporates inorganic particles in the resin. The resin layer with particles is coated on a CRT screen prior to coating with aluminum film. The resin layer is volatilizable, so that following applying the aluminum film, the screen is baked to drive off the resin. The inorganic particles in the resin layer create an uneven boundary with the screen, so that during baking, volatilized resin in the form of gases can escape from between the aluminum and screen without forming bubbles or causing swelling.
Claims14
A cathode ray tube having a phosphor screen formed on an inner surface of a faceplate, the phosphor screen comprising:
- an array of three phosphor elements of three different emission colors arranged in a cyclic order of a predetermined structure of multiple-stripe or multiple-dot shape and a matrix of light-absorptive material surrounding the phosphor elements;
- a resin film formed on the light-absorptive material and the phosphor elements, the resin film being applied by a solution containing inorganic particles, said inorganic particles remaining after the resin film is volatilized by heat;
- an aluminum thin film formed on the resin film, the resin film enhancing a flatness and reflectivity of the aluminum thin film.
A cathode ray tube having a phosphor screen assembly formed by a process comprising:
- forming a volatile conductive layer on an inner surface of a panel utilizing at least one of the phosphor elements and the light-absorptive material;
- forming a volatile photo-conductive layer on the volatile conductive layer, the volatile photo-conductive layer containing a material responsive to visible rays or ultraviolet rays;
- charging the volatile photo-conductive layer with uniform electrostatic charges;
- exposing the volatile photo-conductive layer through a shadow mask to a light source so as to selectively discharge the electrostatic charges from the volatile photo-conductive layer;
- developing the photo-conductive layer by charging powdered particles to be attached on one of an exposed area and an unexposed area of the photo-conductive layer;
- forming a resin film to the photo-conductive layer by coating the photo-conductive layer with a lacquer solution containing inorganic particles to create uneven portions in the resin film;
- applying an aluminum thin film to the resin film after forming the resin film;
- and
- baking the phosphor screen to volatilize the resin film, whereby gases formed by volatilizing the resin film escape through the uneven portions to minimize bubbling and swelling of the aluminum thin film.
