Abstract
A cathode ray tube includes a panel with an inner phosphor screen, and a funnel sealed to the panel while facing the phosphor screen. The funnel is externally mounted with a deflection yoke. A neck is sealed to the rear of the funnel while mounting an electron gun to emit electron beams therein. A shadow mask is placed within the panel. The shadow mask has a hole-formation portion with a plurality of beam-guide holes, a non-holed portion externally surrounding the hole-formation portion while being shaped with a rectangular frame, and a skirt bent from the outer periphery of the non-holed portion to the rear of the panel. The skirt has a basic etching portion half-etched at a predetermined roughness. The components of the shadow mask are integrated into one body. A welding portion is formed at the bottom of the skirt with a plurality of welding points. A mask frame is internally suspension-fitted to the panel while being welded to the skirt to support the shadow mask. The skirt of the shadow mask has a subsidiary etching portion placed between the welding portion and the basic etching portion while being half-etched at a roughness greater than the roughness of the basic etching portion.
