ABSTRACT:
This disclosure depicts method and apparatus useful in fabricating a screen of a color cathode ray tube of the slot mask, stripe-screen type and more particularly method and apparatus for exposing a photosensitive coating on the concave inner surface of the faceplate of such a tube through a slot mask serving as an exposure master. Latent screen stripe images are formed whose width increases with increasing radial distance along the screen "pitch" axis perpendicular to the screen stripe images. The method comprises supporting a curved faceplate which has on its concave inner surface a photosensitive coating; supporting adjacent the faceplate inner surface a slot mask defining an array of columns of spaced slots; supporting a line source of radiation actinic to said coating on or near a central axis of the faceplate and spaced from said coating, with the source axis aligned parallel to said columns of spaced slots in said mask, said light source producing a linear light-emitting volume having a major cross-sectional axis which is parallel to the faceplate central axis and a major axis dimension which is substantially greater than the minor cross-sectional axis dimension of said light-emitting volume; and exposing said coating to said light source, such that the latent screen stripe images formed on said coating through said slots, for uniform exposure time and slot width, increase in width in a radial direction away from said screen center along said screen pitch axis.
