The Cathode Ray Tube and its Applications

The Channel Multiplier Cathode-ray Tube

This paper describes a new approach to cathode-ray tube design aimed at achieving a significant depth reduction. The addressing function of the electron beam has been separated from the light generation process by a channel electron multiplier array, allowing the use of a novel deflection system based on a low-power scanning beam. Monochrome versions of the thin tube have been made with a 12" (...

Luminance artifacts of cathode-ray tube displays for vision research.

Phosphor persistence, video bandwidth, DC restoration and high-voltage regulation affect the appearance of images presented on cathode-ray tubes (CRTs), potentially resulting in differences between nominal and actual stimuli. We illustrate these effects by measuring physical parameters of horizontal and vertical static and counter-phase flickering gratings, and we illustrate problems for vision...

Modeling the effects of gamma on the colors displayed on cathode ray tube monitors

Evaluating the economic viability of a material recovery system: the case of cathode ray tube glass.

This paper presents an analysis of the material recovery system for leaded glass from cathode ray tubes (CRTs) using a dynamic material flow analysis. In particular, the global mass flow of primary and secondary CRT glass and the theoretical capacities for using secondary CRT glass to make new CRT glass are analyzed. The global mass flow analysis indicates that the amount of new glass required ...

What monitor can replace the cathode-ray tube for visual stimulation to elicit multifocal electroretinograms?

To compare a conventional cathode-ray tube (CRT) screen to organic light-emitting diode (OLED) and liquid crystal display (LCD) screens as visual stimulators to elicit multifocal electroretinograms (mfERGs), mfERGs were recorded from seven eyes of seven healthy volunteers (21 ± 2 years). The mfERGs elicited by a conventional CRT screen (S710, Compaq Computer Co.) were compared to those elicited...
