(54) | Cathode ray tube |
(57) A cathode ray tube (101) in which an electron beam rectangular shape discharged from
an electron gun (102) passes through holes (e.g. circular or) of a shadow mask (104)
and then strikes on a fluorescent substance (103) on the front surface of a tube body.
During that time the electron beam is shielded from a magnetic field generated by
magnetizing the shadow mask. Preferably said magnetic shielding means includes a magnetic
shield layer plated over the inner front surface of each hole of the shadow mask,
said magnetic shielding means consisting of a material (e.g. nickel-iron-alloy) higher
in magnetic permeability than the magnetic material of the bulk material of the shadow
mask. |
