A process for preparing cathodochromic materials whereby coloration properties of the materials are enhanced by a low-temperature re-crystallization process. Crystalline powders formed using either hydrothermal or sintering growth techniques are hydrothermally re-crystallized at a temperature sufficiently high and for a time sufficiently long to effect re-crystallization. The temperature range for hydrothermal re-crystallization is 60.degree.C to 300.degree.C and the re-crystallization growth time is at least the order of 12 hours and, more typically, the order of three days. There is shown a cathode ray tube employing said materials.
