Ribs for defining pixel cells are formed in the shape of a lattice, and sustain electrodes and scan electrodes are disposed near the ribs. The electrodes are spaced apart in each pixel cell, and the sustain electrode and the scan electrode are each cut away between pixel cells arranged in the row direction to provide each pixel cell with individually separated electrodes. In addition, between pixel cells adjacent to each other in the row direction, the sustain electrodes and the scan electrodes are connected to each other by means of a sustain-side bus electrode and a scan-side bus electrode, respectively. This makes it possible to provide a high luminous efficiency. Furthermore, each pixel cell is provided with a wide distance between the electrodes and thereby with a large effective opening portion. Thus, this provides only a small amount of reduction in intensity when the electrodes are spaced apart between the pixel cells arranged in the row direction in order to increase the luminous efficiency. The sustain electrodes or the scan electrodes can be connected to each other or shared between pixel cells adjacent to each other in the column direction and thus the effective opening portion can be made larger, thereby making it possible to provide a further increased intensity and luminous efficiency.

A color cathode ray tube apparatus is provided to reduce the amount of deflection power required, this apparatus having a panel part, on the inside surface of which is formed a phosphor film that emits three primary colors, a funnel part that has its expanded aperture joined to the panel part and a funnel-shaped part, a neck part in which is housed an electron gun structure, and which is joined to the reduced-diameter &phgr; a aperture of the funnel part, and a deflection yoke that is disposed between the funnel part and the neck part, the neck part being formed by a main part that houses the electron gun structure and a reduced-diameter part to which are attached the deflection yokes. The funnel part has a quadrangular pyramid shape at the end that is joined to the neck part, and this can also be used for attachment of the deflection yoke.

A ring-formed correction coil for generating a magnetic field is mounted on the cathode side of CPM,provided on the neck portion of a color cathode ray tube, thereby being disposed distant from the deflection yoke. By using the magnetic field generated by supplying a correction current from a control circuit to the correction coil of this arrangement, correction of convergence error of R and G beam horizontal lines are carried out without causing landing transition or raster rotation. Further, since the correction coil is disposed distant from the phosphor screen, a large amount of correction can be assured on the phosphor screen, thereby saving current supplied from the control circuit to the correction coil.

In a field emission cold cathode composed of a plurality of micro cold cathodes, the diameter of a plurality of openings formed in a gate electrode is large at a central region of an electron emission zone but small at a peripheral region of the electron emission zone, or the thickness of the gate electrode is small at the central region of the electron emission zone but large at the peripheral region of the electron emission zone. Alternatively, the thickness of an insulator layer is small at the central region of the electron emission zone but large at the peripheral region of the electron emission zone. Or, a resistance layer is provided between a substrate and a plurality of electron emission electrodes, and resistivity of the resistance layer is small at the central region of the electron emission zone but large at the peripheral region of the electron emission zone.
