Abstract
A method of manufacturing a cathode ray tube (CRT) having a color filter luminescent screen assembly is disclosed. The luminescent screen assembly is formed on an interior surface of a faceplate panel of the CRT tube. The luminescent screen assembly includes a patterned light-absorbing matrix that defines a plurality of sets of fields corresponding to one of a blue region, a red region and a green region. A color filter is formed in one of the plurality of sets of fields. The color filter is formed by applying a photosensitive material layer on the inner surface of the faceplate panel and exposing one of the sets of fields corresponding to the blue region, the red region or the green region, to harden the photosensitive material in such region. A pigment layer, having a color that corresponds to the color of the region of hardened photosensitive material, is then applied over the exposed photosensitive material layer. After the pigment layer is applied, the unhardened photosensitive material layer is removed to form the color filter.
