A cathodoluminescent device employs elongated grid electrodes such as small gauge wires for addressing and controlling the brightness of the display, thereby increasing the osmotic coefficient of the grid electrodes. End portions of the cathode filaments are bent into springs to reduce cold terminal effects. The edges of the face plate of the device are curved to reduce the visual effects of mosaic slots. The display may be operated at low anode voltage with increased luminescence so that full screen scanning is possible. Different sections of narrow strips forming a staggered structure strengthens the integrity of the device and reduces dark areas in the display.

The present invention relates to high luminant fluorescent color picture element tubes and display units of the same for large area or giant area display. A fluorescent picture element tube comprises a cathode, a control electrode, an anode, and a light output window. Several such color tubes may be arranged in line or matrix to construct a color picture element tube display unit representing one or more picture elements. The light emitted by the phosphor coated on the large area of the anode passes through the relatively small area of the light output window. A high luminance efficiency may also be obtained as the good heat dissipation of the anode. So higher light output can be obtained and the anode voltage can be reduced. The cost of large area or giant area display system using the tubes and units which have simple construction and lower drive voltage is greatly reduced. The display of monochrome, polychrome, color, and changeable color is also achievable.
