Abstract:
A method for use in the construction of a color display screen using deposition of a plurality of electroluminescent materials onto a substrate bearing said screen. The method comprises the forming operations a), b), and c) in any sequence: a) forming on the substrate a first screening pattern of deposition sites covered with a first material selectively strippable by a first agent; b) forming on the substrate a second pattern of deposition sites covered with a second material strippable by a second agent; and c) forming on the substrate a matrix surrounding the first and second patterns of deposition sites. The method includes thereafter performing a first stripping of the first material with the first agent to reveal first deposition sites within the matrix and performing a first depositing of a first electroluminescent material within the first revealed deposition sites. Following the first stripping and depositing, the second material is stripped with the second agent to reveal second deposition sites within the matrix and a second electroluminescent material is deposited within the second revealed deposition sites. By the practice of the disclosed method the forming operations are segregated from the electroluminescent material depositing operations.
Abstract:
A method for making a flat display screen anode (5) comprising at least three series (g, b, r) of parallel alternate anode conductor strips (9g, 9b, 9r), and further comprising, for each series of anode conductor strips (9g, 9b, 9r), a single electrical connection pad (15, 16, 22), each pad being accessible via conductive paths from one surface level of the anode.
Abstract:
This method makes it possible to form a fluorescent film (10) easily and efficiently on a glass plate (18), particularly on the face plate (8) of a cathode ray tube. A transfer material for its use is also provided. The method comprises the steps of, by use of the transfer material (7) in which at least thermally transferable phospher layers (11, 12 and 13) containing phosphers and thermally fusible binder are formed on a base film (3), transferring the patterns of the thermally transferrable phospher layers (11, 12 and 13) to the glass plate (8) one after another; and baking the glass plate (8) to remove the binder from the fluorescent film (10) and to form the fluorescence film on the glass plate. The transfer material has a thermally transferable phosphor layer (4) containing at least phosphs (1) and thermally fusible binder (2) on the base film (3).
Abstract:
An improved cataphoretic process is disclosed for use in the manufacture of a color cathode ray tube. The process provides for depositing in sequence on the tube screening surface at least two separate patterns of phosphor elements, with each pattern of elements capable of emitting light of a different color when excited. The process according to the invention comprises first depositing an electrically conductive coating over the screening surface for use as an electrode during each deposition operation. Second, an electrically insulative barrier is deposited over the conductive coating. Portions of the barrier are removed selectively and sequentially for controlling patterned, sequenced cataphoretic access to the electrically conductive coating.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a fluorescent screen of a cathode-ray tube makes it possible to reliably obtain a fluorescent material pattern for a light pen pickup by the application of an inversion method and the selection of a composition of the fluorescent material slurrry. The method includes: a step of forming a photosensitive layer in a predetermined pattern on the inner surface of the panel of a cathode-ray tube; a step of applying a slurry of a fluorescent material for a light pen pickup all over the inner surface of the panel including the surface of the photosensitive layer; and removing the photosensitive layer to thereby form a light pen pickup fluorescent material pattern (3) which is the inversion of the photosensitive layer pattern. The fluorescent material slurry contains silica and polyvinyl alcohol. Representing the silica content (weight) by S, the solid content (weight) of polyvinyl alcohol by B and the entire amount of the fluorescent material (weight) by P, S/B is selected to fall between 1 and 15, and P/B between 5 and 30.
