Abstract

Abstract The screen of a color picture tube is provided with an interlaced pattern of filter components individually transmissive of one of the primary colors, green, blue and red. The filters are applied through a photographic printing process which features a water-based organic photosensitive coating material, including as an ingredient a metallic compound referred to as a luster, and having the property that upon being heated to a predetermined firing temperature the organic constituents evaporate, leaving as a residue an inorganic colorant that is predominantly transmissive to one of the three primary colors. The filter components are dimensioned to overlap at their peripheral portions and define, in the areas of overlap, a light attenuator. The non-overlapping portion of each filter receives a deposit of a phosphor which emits light of the wavelength to which the associated filter component is transmissive.
