Claim 5

A projection television apparatus according to claim 3, wherein at least one of said first multi-layered interference filter and said multi-layered interference coating includes a vacuum evaporation film composed of a plurality of alternately superimposed layers of different refractive indexes.

Claim 6

A projection television apparatus according to claim 4, wherein said vacuum evaporation film is composed of a first material having a high refractive index, and a second material having a low refractive index.

Claim 7

A projection television apparatus according to claim 5, wherein said first material and said second material comprise titanium oxide and silicon oxide, respectively.

Claim 8

A projection television apparatus according to claim 5, wherein said first material and said second material comprise titanium oxide and silicon oxide, respectively.

Claim 9

A projection television apparatus according to claim 2, wherein said color selecting means forms an entire lens, sequentially arranged with the plurality of green projection lenses and colored by mixing therein a metallic material, a pigment and a dye in order to have a transmittivity characteristic to reflect or absorb light having a wavelength of at most 520 nm.

Claim 10

A projection television apparatus according to claim 8, wherein said lens is colored by soaking in a coloring liquid to cause infiltration of the liquid to the surface of said lens, in order to have a transmittivity characteristic to reflect or absorb light having a wavelength of at most 520nm.

Claim 11

A projection television apparatus comprising: a cathode ray tube including a display window, a display screen of a fluorescent material layer disposed on an inner surface of the display window, and a first multi-layered interference filter disposed between said fluorescent material layer and the display screen, the first multi-layered interference filter composed of alternately superimposed high and low refractive index materials; a plurality of green projection lenses arranged in a plurality of sequential linear positions in front of said display screen of said cathode ray tube; and color selecting means arranged in a predetermined one, of said sequential linear positions, not occupied by one of the plurality of green projection lenses, in front of said display screen of said cathode ray tube, said color selecting means having at least one of a high reflection factor and a high absorption factor for reflecting all unnecessary light to thereby improve color purity of the cathode ray tube.

Claim 12

A projection television apparatus comprising: a cathode ray tube including a display window, a display screen of a fluorescent material layer disposed on an inner surface of the display window, and a first multi-layered interference filter disposed between said fluorescent material layer and the display screen, the first multi-layered interference filter composed of alternately superimposed high and low refractive index materials; a plurality of green projection lenses arranged in a plurality of sequential linear positions in front of said display screen of said cathode ray tube; and color selecting means arranged in a predetermined one, of said sequential linear positions, not occupied by one of the plurality of green projection lenses, in front of said display screen of said cathode ray tube, said color selecting means having at least one of a high reflection factor and a high absorption factor for reflecting all unnecessary light to thereby improve color purity of the cathode ray tube.

Claim 13

The projection television apparatus of claim 10, wherein the color selecting means is a lens, arranged in the sequentially furthest linear position from the display screen of the cathode ray tube, colored by mixing therein a metallic material, a pigment and a dye in order to achieve a transmittivity characteristic to reflect or absorb light having a wavelength of at most 520 nm.

Claim 14

The projection television apparatus of claim 10 wherein the color selecting means is a coolant, arranged at the sequentially nearest linear position to the display screen of the cathode ray tube, colored by mixing a pigment or a dye in the coolant, in order to obtain a transmittivity characteristic to reflect or absorb light having a wavelength of at most 520 nm.
