Abstract
In a method of manufacturing a color cathode-ray tube comprising a magnetic quadrupole post-focusing mask (7) the mask (7) is formed by a plate of permanent magnetizable material in which apertures (9) are provided arranged according to rows. Sections of the plate are successively magnetized by positioning parallel conductors (21, 22, 23) on at least one side of the plate in such manner that each time two conductors through which an electric current flows in opposite directions are situated between two rows of apertures (9) and a magnetic quadrupole is formed along the circumference of each of the apertures (9). A number of outermost conductors (30, 31, 32, 33) determines an edge area of the section. In order to prevent the occurrence of disturbing magnetization errors in the edge area, the edge area is made to coincide with a part of a preceding section already magnetized according to the desired strength. A magnetic induction is generated in the edge area according to a pattern corresponding to the existing pattern in the preceding section but having a strength which decreases towards the outermost conductor (30 ).
