Abstract
The present invention provides an improvement in a cathode-ray tube that includes a rectangular faceplate having two long sides and two short sides wherein the ratio of the length of the long sides to the length of the short sides is approximately 16 to 9. The tube includes a major axis which parallels the two long sides and a minor axis which parallels the two short sides. The improvement comprises the ratio of the equivalent radius of the faceplate curvature along the major axis to the equivalent radius of the faceplate curvature along the minor axis being in the approximate range of 1.5 to 1.6, the ratio of the equivalent radius of the faceplate curvature along the long sides of the faceplate to the equivalent radius of faceplate curvature along the major axis being in the approximate range of 1.12 to 1.15, and the ratio of the equivalent radius of the faceplate curvacute along the long sides of the faceplate to the equivalent radius of faceplate curvature along the short sides being in the approximate range of 1.30 to 1.36.
