Abstract
A method of producing a color picture tube screen particularly for a high definition tube. In producing a high definition screen light from a point source (S) is directed through a segmented lens (18) and a shadow mask (24) onto a layer of photoresist applied to the internal surface of a faceplate panel (12). The segmented lens (18) comprises a rectilinear array of differently inclined facets (F). In order to obtain a substantially uniform illumination of the faceplate panel (12), the segmented lens (18) is wobbled in an oblique direction such that in moving from one extreme position to another, the image of a facet on the panel occupies substantially the previous position of the image of another facet obliquely adjacent the first mentioned facet when at the one extreme position.
