Abstract

The present invention provides an electron gun for a cathode ray tube that forms a main focus lens of a maximum diameter within a neck of a limited diameter to thereby realize high focus performance and resolution characteristics. The electron gun includes a single cathode emitting electrons; first and second grid electrodes forming a triode portion with the cathode; a third grid electrode provided subsequent to the second grid electrode; a fourth grid electrode provided subsequent to the third grid electrode and to which a focus voltage is applied, the fourth grid electrode including an input section positioned opposing the third grid electrode and an output section connected to the input section; a fifth grid electrode mounted surrounding part of the fourth grid electrode with a predetermined gap therebetween and to which an anode voltage is applied; and a connector interconnecting the third grid electrode and the fifth grid electrode, wherein the output section of the fourth grid electrode is exposed.
