Abstract

The color cathode-ray tube comprises a glass bulb, a shadow mask, a deflection yoke, and an electron-beam shifting device. The glass bulb comprises a face-plate with stripe-like phosphors for a plurality of colors formed on its inner face by a printing method, a funnel portion connected to the rear part of the face-plate, and a neck portion formed at the rear of the funnel portion. Inside the neck portion, an inline electron gun is provided for emitting electron beams. The shadow mask comprises a plurality of openings disposed corresponding to the stripe direction of the phosphors for each color on the face-plate. The deflection yoke is provided on the peripheral surfaces of the funnel portion and the neck portion. The electron-beam shifting device is provided on the peripheral surface of the neck portion for shifting the deflection center of the electron beams in the inline-alignment direction of the electron beams. The phosphors are formed by the printing method, thus reducing the costs. Furthermore, the electron-beam shifting device is provided, thus ensuring accurate color reproduction.
