Abstract
A color cathode ray tube has a panel portion in which a black matrix layer and plural phosphor layers are formed on the inner surface of its faceplate. The black matrix layer is provided with first-color holes for a first phosphor layer and second-color holes for a second phosphor layer. The first-color holes and the second-color holes become gradually larger in diameter from the central portion toward the corner portions of the faceplate, and the rate of variation in the diameters of the first-color holes and the rate of variation in the diameters of the second-color holes are different from each other. According to the above-described construction, there is provided a cathode ray tube in which white uniformity is improved over the entire screen.
