Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an in-line electron gun for a cathode ray tube (CRT), and more particularly to a dynamic focusing electron gun for forming circular beam spots throughout a large, flat screen for a color CRT having a wide deflection angle.
Generally, an in-line electron gun for a color CRT is composed of a heater, a cathode and first through fourth grids. A picture is produced by the following sequence in the color cathode ray tube: (1) thermions (hereinafter termed electrons) are emitted; (2) the amount of emitted electrons is controlled by an external signal; (3) the electron beam is focused; and (4) the emitted electrons are accelerated to strike a phosphor screen.
In the above sequence, the first and second steps are performed by the cathode and the first and second grids (called a triode). When the cathode is heated by the heater, the electrons are emitted from the surface of the cathode. The emitted electrons pass through the passing holes of the first and second grids.
The third step is primarily performed by a main lens formed between the first and second focusing electrodes. The electrons having passed through the holes of the first and second grids are prefocused by a prefocusing lens formed by the second grid and first focusing electrode and are accelerated and focused by the main lens. Here, if the voltage applied to the first focusing electrode (focusing voltage) is controlled, the focusing state can be controlled so that a picture of the intended quality is realized on the screen.
The fourth step is carried out by a shadow mask and the second focusing electrode, that is, an anode, and graphite internally coated on the inner surface of the color CRT. Here, with the electrons being negative charges, a high positive voltage is applied to the anode so as to attract the electrons and cause them to strike a phosphor screen.
A conventional in-line electron gun for color CRT will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. In each of the attached drawings, the portion above the central dot-and-dash line shows the vertical half section of the electron gun, while the portion below the horizontal half section. The solid line indicates the path of the electron beam when directed at the screen center, and the dotted line indicates the deflection path of the electron beam around the periphery of the screen.
In FIG. 1, a conventional static focusing electron gun does not compensate for the over-focus in the vertical direction nor under-focus in the horizontal direction which are caused by a deflection yoke lens A2 and produced when the electron beam emitted from a cathode 2 is deflected toward the screen periphery by the deflection yoke. Hence, an electron beam spot formed around the screen periphery has a halo vertically and a thin laterally-elongated core horizontally. These deteriorate picture quality.
In order to improve the vertical halo around the screen periphery of the static focusing electron gun, a dynamic focusing electron gun with a quadrupole lens which is an auxiliary lens has been proposed. In the quadrupole lens, when the electron beam is emitted from the cathode 2 and is deflected toward the screen periphery, a dynamic focus voltage modulated by being synchronized with a deflection signal of the deflection yoke is applied so as to compensate for the oblique astigmatism and focal length of the deflected electron beam.
In FIG. 2 illustrating the conventional dynamic focusing electron gun, when the electron beach emitted from cathode 22 is deflected toward the screen periphery, the electron beam diverges vertically by a quadrupole lens B1 formed by second focusing electrode 26 and first and third focusing electrodes 25 and 27 to which a dynamic focus voltage Vd modulated by being synchronized with the deflection signal of the deflection yoke is applied. Then, after passing the periphery of a main lens B2, the electron beam proceeds in parallel. Passing the periphery of a deflection yoke convergent lens B3, the electron beam is under an intense convergent action, resulting in excessively and vertically converged electron beam spot. Meanwhile, since the electron beam is collimated by quadrupole lens B1, passes the central portion of main lens B2, is incident on deflection yoke divergent lens B3 at a small convergent angle and diverges by deflection yoke divergent lens B3, the electron beam spot becomes horizontally elongated, compared with the vertical beam spot.
Accordingly, in the conventional dynamic focusing electron gun, even though the vertical halo is not created, a moire phenomenon is evident on the screen, since the height of the electron beam spot is much smaller than that of the electron beam passing hole in the shadow mask. Moreover, the size of the horizontally-elongated core is nearly the same as that of the static focusing electron gun. As a result, the conventional dynamic focusing electron gun offers no real improvement.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide a dynamic focusing electron gun which improves the vertical moire phenomenon and horizontal elongation of the electron beam spot so as to form nearly-circular electron beam spots throughout the screen and acquire a good quality picture, even when an electron beam is deflected toward the periphery of the screen.
To accomplish The object, there is provided a dynamic focusing electron gun comprising a cathode and first and second grids which collectively form a triode, a plurality of electrodes for forming an auxiliary lens, and an anode installed adjacent to the final electrode of the auxiliary lens to form a main lens, wherein electron beam passing holes are formed in each of the plurality of electrodes for forming the auxiliary lens so that an electron beam is repeatedly and alternately deformed in the sequence of the vertically-elongated and then horizontally-elongated (or horizontally-elongated and then vertically-elongated) shapes, so as to form more than two quadrupole lenses of opposing polarities.
In one embodiment, the auxiliary lens has three electrodes, three vertically-elongated electron beam passing holes are provided on the electron beam outgoing plane of a first focusing electrode of the auxiliary lens, three horizontally-elongated electron beam passing holes and three vertically-elongated electron beam passing holes are formed on the electron beam incoming and outgoing planes of a second focusing electrode which is the second electrode of the auxiliary lens, respectively, three horizontally-elongated electron beam passing holes are formed on the electron beam incoming plane of a third focusing electrode of the auxiliary lens, a dynamic focus voltage modulated by being synchronized with a deflection signal of a deflection yoke is applied to the first and third focusing electrodes, and a static focus voltage is applied to the second focusing electrode to form two quadrupole lenses of opposing polarities.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Embodiment 1
Referring to FIG. 3, the dynamic focusing electron gun comprises cathode 32, first grid 33 and second grid 34 which constitute a triode, first quadrupole lens C1 and secondary quadrupole lens C2 which are two quadrupole lenses having opposing polarities, first, second and third focusing electrodes 35, 36 and 37 which form first and secondary quadrupole lenses C1 and C2, and accelerating electrode 38 installed adjacent to third focusing electrode 37 to form main lens C3.
Here, three vertically-elongated electron beam passing holes are provided on the electron beam outgoing plane of first focusing electrode 35. Three horizontally-elongated electron beam passing holes and three vertically-elongated electron beam passing holes are formed on the electron beam incoming and outgoing planes of second focusing electrode 36, respectively. Three horizontally-elongated electron beam passing holes are formed on the electron beam incoming plane of third focusing electrode 37. A dynamic focus voltage Vd modulated by being synchronized with the deflection signal of the deflection yoke is applied to first and third focusing electrodes 35 and 37. A static focus voltage Vs is applied to second focusing electrode 36.
The operation of the dynamic focusing electron gun according to the present invention will be described below.
Referring to FIG. 3, as a voltage is applied to each of the electrodes of the dynamic focusing electron gun, an electron beam emitted from cathode 32 is projected onto the phosphor screen to form a pixel, a group of which makes up a picture. The projection states of the electron beam is described below, being divided into the center and periphery of the screen.
First, since the electron beam is not deflected by the deflection yoke, an equipotential static focus voltage Vs is applied to each of first, second and third focusing electrodes 35, 36 and 37, so that it is projected toward the screen's center. When this happens, the electron beam is pre-focused as it passes through the pre-focus lens formed by second grid 34 and first focusing electrode 35. Passing through main lens C3 formed by third focusing electrode 37 and accelerating electrode 38, the electron beam is finally focused and accelerated to form a circular beam spot on the center of the screen to result in optimum landing.
On the other hand, when the electron beam is projected toward the screen's periphery, since dynamic focus voltage Vd modulated by being synchronized with the deflection signal of the deflection yoke is applied to first and third focusing electrodes 35 and 37, two electrostatic quadrupole lenses having opposing polarities, that is, first quadrupole lens C1 and secondary quadrupole lens C2 are formed between first, second and third focusing electrodes 35, 36 and 37. Here, first quadrupole lens C1 vertically shrinks and horizontally elongates the diameter of the electron beam incident upon secondary quadrupole lens C2.
As a result, when passing main lens C3 after passing secondary quadrupole lens C2, the position of the electron beam is virtually the same as when the dynamic focusing is not carried out at the screen center.
More specifically, since the electron beam strikes secondary quadrupole lens C2 with a small vertical diameter, the electron beam diverges therefrom at a small angle. Then the electron beam is collimated while under a small aberration of main lens C3, and is incident upon the central portion of deflection yoke convergent lens C4. Since the diameter of the incident electron beam is small, the electron beam is under a weak convergent action by deflection yoke convergent lens C4 and the focal length is elongated. Since the electron beam is incident upon secondary quadrupole lens C2 with a large horizontal diameter, the electron beam is collimated while with the large diameter. Passing main lens C3, the electron beam is focused under an intense aberration to strike the central portion of deflection yoke divergent lens C4. Since the diameter of the incident electron beam is small, the electron beam is under a weak divergent action by deflection yoke divergent lens C4, to lessen the horizontal divergent angle.
As a result, the electron beam spot landing on the periphery of the phosphor screen is elongated vertically and reduced horizontally so that the difference of the height and width of the electron beam is decreased. Therefore, the ratio more closely approximates 1 (height/width.apprxeq.0.8).

In the embodiments, the electron beam passing holes opposing the first, second, third, fourth and fifth focusing grids are in the form of a vertically-elongated or horizontally-elongated rectangle 71. However, not confined to these forms, as shown in FIG. 7, this invention may use at least one of the following electron beam passing hole formations: a vertically-elongated or horizontally-elongated rectangle with central circle 72 (a rectangle the aperture of which is expanded by a circle portion protruding from the central long side), a circle attached with vertically-elongated or horizontally-elongated strips 73, or a circle attached with vertically-elongated or horizontally-elongated rectangular strip 74.
As described above, in the dynamic focusing electron gun of the present invention, the height of the electron beam spot is increased on the screen periphery so that the vertical size ratio with the electron beam passing holes in the shadow mask is improved. This eliminates the moire phenomenon. Horizontally, the horizontal elongation of the electron beam spot is reduced to enhance the resolution. This allows a nearly-circular electron beam spot on the periphery of the screen, thereby accomplishing a good quality picture throughout the screen. Further, the excessive vertical compression of the electron beam spot is alleviated on the screen periphery, to decrease the difference in size of the electron beam spots on the screen center with respect to those on its periphery. This improves picture quality on the screen's periphery without sacrificing the picture quality of the screen's center, thereby obtaining a sharp picture from a low-current area to a high-current area.
