Abstract
Abstract Corrosion of an aluminium film on the display screen of a display tube as a result of an electro-chemical reaction between water and aluminium is substantially prevented by providing the aluminium with an aluminium phosphate layer at the area where it adjoins the carbon particles. This may be done by rinsing or spraying the carbon particles with an at most 2% by weight phosphoric acid solution in water prior to or after providing the aluminium film.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
92 words
In a display tube comprising an envelope including a display window, a display screen disposed on an inner surface of said display window, and means for directing an electron beam at said screen, said display screen comprising at least one layer of a luminescent material deposited on said display window, at least one layer of a particulate carbon-containing material, and an electron permeable layer of an aluminum containing material deposited on said luminescent material, the improvement comprising a layer of aluminum phosphate disposed between said carbon-containing material and said aluminum containing material.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
92 words
In a display tube comprising an envelope including a display window, a display screen disposed on an inner surface of said display window, and means for directing an electron beam at said screen, said display screen comprising at least one layer of a luminescent material deposited on said display window, at least one layer of a particulate carbon-containing material, and an electron permeable layer of an aluminum containing material deposited on said luminescent material, the improvement comprising a layer of aluminum phosphate disposed between said carbon-containing material and said aluminum containing material.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
27 words
A display tube as in claim 1 where the particulate carbon-containing material is deposited on a surface of the electron permeable layer remote from the display window.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
13 words
A display tube as in claim 2 comprising a projection television display tube.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
38 words
A display tube as in claim 1 where the display screen comprises a plurality of spaced-apart parallel stripes of the luminescent material, and a particulate carbon-containing material deposited on the display window between said stripes of luminescent material.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
91 words
A method of manufacturing a display screen for a display tube comprising: (a) depositing a layer of a luminescent material on an inner surface of a display window of said tube; (b) vapor depositing an electron permeable layer of an aluminum containing material on said luminescent material; (c) depositing a layer of a particulate carbon-containing material on said electron permeable layer; (d) soaking said particulate carbon-containing material with a solution consisting essentially of a maximum of 2% by weight of phosphoric acid dissolved in water; and (e) drying the display screen.
Claim 7
Independent Claim
91 words
A method of manufacturing a display screen for a display tube comprising: (a) depositing a layer of a luminescent material on an inner surface of a display window of said tube; (b) vapor depositing an electron permeable layer of an aluminum containing material on said luminescent material; (c) depositing a layer of a particulate carbon-containing material on said electron permeable layer; (d) soaking said particulate carbon-containing material with a solution consisting essentially of a maximum of 2% by weight of phosphoric acid dissolved in water; and (e) drying the display screen.
Claim 8
Independent Claim
99 words
A method of manufacturing a display screen for a display tube comprising: (a) depositing a plurality of spaced-apart parallel stripes of luminescent material on an inner surface of a display window of said tube; (b) depositing a particulate carbon-containing material on the inner surface of said display window between said stripes of luminescent material; (c) soaking said particulate carbon-containing material with a solution consisting essentially of a maximum of 2% by weight of phosphoric acid dissolved in water; (d) drying said materials; and (e) vapor depositing an electron permeable layer of an aluminum containing material on said dried materials.
Claim 9
Independent Claim
99 words
A method of manufacturing a display screen for a display tube comprising: (a) depositing a plurality of spaced-apart parallel stripes of luminescent material on an inner surface of a display window of said tube; (b) depositing a particulate carbon-containing material on the inner surface of said display window between said stripes of luminescent material; (c) soaking said particulate carbon-containing material with a solution consisting essentially of a maximum of 2% by weight of phosphoric acid dissolved in water; (d) drying said materials; and (e) vapor depositing an electron permeable layer of an aluminum containing material on said dried materials.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
21 words
A method as in claim 5 or 6 where said solution further includes 0.1 to 2.0% by weight of aluminum phosphate.
