A method for producing a bulb for a color cathode ray tube, the bulb having a face plate and a color selection member having a plurality of opening portions,
- the method comprising the step of exposing a light-sensitive film formed on an inner surface of the face plate based upon a transmitted-light strength distribution of superposed Fresnel diffraction waves of exposure light that are emitted from a plurality of exposure light sources arranged along an electron beam sweep direction and that pass through the opening portions formed in the color selection member to form exposed regions in the light sensitive film corresponding to the opening portions, wherein
- X is a nominal diagonal dimension of the bulb, P is a pitch of The opening portions along the electron beam sweep direction in a central portion of the bulb, and a transmitted-light strength of the superposed Presnel diffraction waves of two exposure lights of the plurality of exposure lights contributing to an exposure of edge portions of the light sensitive film corresponding to each opening portion satisfies:
- a first-order derivative of the transmitted-light strength has an upward-convex area in an area of the transmitted-light strength in which the transmitted-light strength on the light sensitive film decreases along the electron beam sweep direction from a central portion of the exposed region of the light sensitive film corresponding to each opening portion;
- the edge portions of the exposed light sensitive film corresponding to each opening portion are included in an area of the transmitted-light strength corresponding to the upward-convex area which appears first along the electron beam sweep direction from the central portion of the exposed region corresponding to each opening portion, out of the upward-convex areas of the first-order derivative of the transmitted-light strength;
- and
- 0.0117X−0.0457<P<0.018X−0.0771.
A method for producing a color cathode ray tube having a bulb, the bulb having a face plate and a color selection member having a plurality of opening portions,
- the method comprising the step of exposing a light-sensitive film formed on an inner surface of the face plate based upon a transmitted-light strength distribution of superposed Fresnel diffraction waves of exposure light emitted from a plurality of exposure light sources arranged along the electron beam sweep direction and pass through the opening portions formed in the color selection member to form exposed regions in the light sensitive film which regions correspond to the opening portions, wherein
- X is a nominal diagonal dimension of the bulb, P is a pitch of the opening portions along an electron beam sweep direction in the central portion of the bulb, and a transmitted-light strength of superposed Presnel diffraction waves of two exposure lights out of the plurality of exposure lights emitted from two exposure light sources contributing to an exposure of edge portions of the light sensitive film corresponding to each opening portion satisfies:
- a first-order derivative of the transmitted-light strength has at least one upward-convex area in an area of the transmitted-light strength where the transmitted-light strength on the light sensitive film decreases along the electron beam sweep direction from a central portion of the exposed region of the light sensitive film corresponding to each opening portion;
- the edge portions of the exposed light sensitive film corresponding to each opening portion are included in an area of the transmitted-light strengch corresponding to the upward-convex area which appears first along the electron beam sweep direction from the central portion of the exposed region corresponding to each opening portion, out of the upward-convex areas of the derivative of the first order of the transmitted-light strength;
- and
- 0.0117X−0.0457<P<0.018X−0.0771.
