Abstract
In a plurality of monochromatic colored light emitted cathode ray tubes arranged in a surface to form a huge screen for displaying a colored picture, glass for use in light-source cathode ray tubes for emitting the red or the blue light has the optical characteristics that it can well pass the light in the wavelength range of the remaining blue and yellow portions of the spectrum to thereby improve contrast of the monochromatic colored red or green light source cathode ray tube. The glass essentially consists, by weight, of 50-75% SiO.sub.2, O-5% Al.sub.2 O.sub.3, 0-4% CaO, 0-2% MgO, 0-12% SrO, 0-16% BaO, 0-3% PbO, 0-3% ZnO, 0-3% ZrO.sub.2, the sum of SrO+BaO+PbO+ZnO+ZrO.sub.2 being 1.5-25%, 0-4% Li.sub.2 O, 3-15% Na.sub.2 O, 1-10% K.sub.2 O, the sum of Li.sub.2 O+Na.sub.2 O+K.sub.2 O being 5-24%, 0-2% TiO.sub.2, 0.1-3% CeO.sub.2, 1-10% Nd.sub.2 O.sub.3, 0.5-5% Pr.sub.2 O.sub.3, and 0.1-4% Fe.sub.2 O.sub.3. According to the glass, the red light emitting cathode ray tube and the green light emitting cathode ray tube are produced only by a simple kind of glass without sacrificing contrast characteristic of the light-source cathode ray tubes emitting red light and green light, respectively. Thus, the red light emitting and the green light emitting cathode ray tubes using the glass are used together with the blue light emitting cathode ray tube to form a huge screen with a reduced cost and without pollution.
