There are a spacing member to control the slant angle and according to the slant angle, both being built between a cathode ray tube and a radiator.
Abstract:
A broadband line source that is directional, rugged, compact, spatially and temporally uniform, stable, without the need for warmup, and relatively easy to implement. The source can be in single-color or multi-color, and it can be used, for example, in a scanner. In one embodiment, the line source includes a first thin-film electroluminescent stack with at least a bottom electrode, a top electrode, and a first active film between the two electrodes. The active film generates radiation in an area that has a width and a length, with the length being larger than the width. The length of the area sets the length of the line radiation, which is substantially homogenous along the line. In another embodiment, three of such stacks are encapsulated through thin-film processes by a cap, which sits on a substrate. The cap has one side surface that is more transmissive to radiation. The generated radiation is directed by the cap to be emitted at the more transmissive side surface to produce a single-color or a multi-color line source.
Abstract:
A field emission cathode includes first and second cathode layers having respective projections and disposed on the surface of a substrate. An insulating layer having an opening and disposed on the surface of the cathode layer surrounds the projections. A field emission tip includes the projections, one of which is annular and projects beyond the other so that the field emission tip has a crater-like shape which improves the electron emission characteristic of the cathode.
Abstract:
A projection cathode ray tube has a liquid coolant coupling apparatus whose structure is improved. The projection cathode ray tube includes a funnel having an electron gun in its neck end and a face plate provided with a screen at the other end, a rectangular radiating plate having a frontal glass corresponding to the face plate having the screen inside thereon, and being firmly attached to the face plate, a liquid coolant layer having a predetermined thickness between the face plate and the frontal glass of the radiating plate, a clamping portion coupled by means of a bolt at each corner of the rectangular radiating plate, and a setting clasp having a contacting surface of a predetermined size in contact with the side of the funnel and a spring both provided over each bolt, whereby the setting clasp settles the funnel while pressing.
Abstract:
A 2-CRT type projection apparatus having a green and blue two-color cathode ray tube and a green and red two-color cathode ray tube and producing a projected picture of high resolution and brightness. The green phosphor of one of the two-color cathode ray tubes is a phosphor which emits green light of high brightness and the green phosphor of the other cathode ray tube is a phosphor which emits green light extending a color reproduction range. Further, stripe directions of the two-color cathode ray tubes are substantially perpendicular to each other.
Abstract:
A liquid cooling type projector is provided with greater flexibility to meet different screen sizes of a projection television and, thus, contributes to the reduction of production cost. The projector has a cylindrical frame containing a projection lens unit mounted by a liquid-tight member thereto and coupled at a rear end to a CRT in liquid-tight arrangement such that a liquid-sealing space is established between the projection lens and the CRT. In particular, the projection lens unit is arranged so as to be movable with respect to the frame along its optical axis. Also, the liquid-tight member is arranged to maintain the liquid-tight condition regardless of the position of the projection lens unit relative to the frame. Thus, the projection lens unit can arbitrarily be displaced towards and away from the CRT, increasing a focusing range. Accordingly, the projector will successfully be matched to different sizes of projection screens contributing to the reduction of the production cost of projection televisions.
Abstract:
An electron beam current modulator is provided between a cathode and a laser screen of a cathode-ray tube and has at least three deflecting plates positioned around, and symmetrically with respect to an optical axis of the cathode-ray tube and a diaphragm having an aperture of a regular shape. An electromagnetic control system is provided between the cathode and deflecting plates. A pickup senses position of the electron beam and produces a signal in case of an offset of the electron beam with respect to the optical axis. A video signal source is connected to a carrier generator having an output connected to an input of a phase shifter. The phase shifter has its outputs connected to the deflecting plates to rotate the cross-section of the electron beam in a plane drawn perpendicularly with respect to the optical axis. The apparatus has a control unit having an input connected to the pickup and an output connected to the electromagnetic control system.
Abstract:
A projection cathode ray tube (CRT) includes a multilayered interference film interposed between a face plate pane and luminescent material layer. This multilayered interference film is composed of alternately superimposed of high refractive index material layers and low refractive index material layers, and the number of layers to be superimposed is four or five. By using a multilayered interference film of only four or five layers, the interference layer is not subject to cracks or film separation occurring during heat processing, due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficients between high and low refractive index material. Further, there still remains enough layers to produce a display highly improved in brightness in the direction of the normal of the face plate pane of the CRT.
Abstract:
A green light emitting phosphor comprising tetravalent elements added to a green light emitting phosphor, Y.sub.3 (Al,Ga).sub.5 O.sub.12 :Tb, wherein the green light emitting phosphor can prevent a so-called electron beam burning even when excited by electron beams of high energy. The green light emitting phosphor is, particularly suitable to be applied to a projector tube or a high-brightness phosphor display tube.

In a projection type color picture display system having red, green and blue picture producing cathode-ray tubes in which the green picture producing cathode-ray tube is capable of emitting green light defined as x.ltorsim.0.330 and y.gtorsim.0.570 in the CIE chromaticity diagram, use is made of a ZnS: Ag, Al phosphor material for forming the phosphor screen of the blue picture producing cathode-ray tube. The projection type display system thus obtained is capable of displaying color pictures with a high color purity and a high saturation.
