Abstract

A color cathode ray tube includes third, fourth and fifth electrodes and an anode in its electron beam focusing section. A first-type electrostatic quadrupole lens is formed between first and second members of the fifth electrode for focusing electron beams in one of horizontally and vertically and diffusing the electron beams in the other of horizontally and vertically increasingly with decreasing beam deflection, and a second-type electrostatic quadrupole lens is formed between first and second members of the third electrode for focusing the electron beams in the other of horizontally and vertically and diffusing the electron beams in the one of horizontally and vertically increasingly with the decreasing beam deflection, and an electron lens is formed between the fourth electrode and a first aperture formed in a first surface of the second member of the third electrode adjacent to the fourth electrode, the first surface being on a side of the second member of the third electrode opposite from the fourth electrode, for diffusing the electron beams horizontally and focusing the electron beams vertically increasingly with the decreasing beam deflection.
