ABSTRACT:
An electron beam device such as a cathode ray tube in which spherical aberration is reduced by optimising the axial potential distribution in the focusing lens of the electron gun. In one embodiment of the invention the electron gun comprises a beam forming part and a segmented focusing lens (25). The focusing lens (25) comprises a preformed glass tube (22) having a high-ohmic resistive layer (23) on the interior wall thereof, the resistive layer (23) comprises helical segments (33 to 37) alternated with intermediate segments (42 to 47). A focusing voltage is applied to the intermediate section (42) closest to the beam forming part and a higher voltage is applied to the end segment (47). The lengths of the helical segments (33 to 37) increase in a direction from the point of application of the focusing voltage whereas the lengths of the intermediate segments (42 to 46) decrease. The lengths of the helical segments (33 37) are such as to produce the desired axial potential distribution.
