ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a color display tube having a shadow mask (12) positioned in front of a display screen (8). The shadow mask (12) is coated at least on the side remote from the display screen with a heavy metal layer (14) of selectively varied thickness. The heavy metal has an atomic number exceeding 70 and has a high electron reflection coefficient, thus minimizing energy absorbed by the shadow mask from electrons impinging on the mask. Because of the selectively-varied thickness of the layer, reflection of electrons intercepted by the mask toward the screen is minimized without sacrificing the reduction in thermal expansion of the mask afforded by such a reflective layer.
