Abstract
A color cathode-ray tube apparatus comprises an electron gun structure having a plurality of electrodes for constituting a plurality of electron lenses including a main lens for focusing an electron beam on a phosphor screen, and a deflection yoke for producing deflection magnetic fields for deflecting the electron beam emitted from the electron gun structure in a horizontal direction and a vertical direction. An electron beam passage hole formed in at least one of the electrodes constituting the main lens has a waist portion substantially acting on formation of the electron lenses. The waist portion minimizes a horizontal dimension of a region where the electron beam passes.
