Abstract
A television camera tube comprising in an evacuated envelope, an electron gun for generating at least one electron beam. The electron beam is focused onto a target, and is deflected over the target. A grid electrode having hexagonal apertures is provided in front of the target. The apertures in the grid electrode are arranged in a honeycomb structure. Each aperture has the form of an equilateral hexagon having angles of 120.degree.. As a result, the susceptibility to Moire effects is reduced, the microphonic properties are improved, and the mesh obtained has a high transmissivity while it can more readily be tensioned and is easier to handle.
