Electron gun for cathode ray tube
First Claim
1. In a cathode ray tube having an electron gun for generating multiple electron beams and a deflection yoke for deflecting the electron beams in response to vertical and horizontal deflection signals applied to the yoke, an electron gun comprising a cathode, a control electrode, and a screen electrode as a first triode, at least first, second, and third focusing electrodes as a main lens system, and an anode electrode, wherein the second focusing electrode includes first, second, and third auxiliary electrodes, applying:
- (i) a first dynamic voltage to said first and third auxiliary electrodes, the first dynamic voltage being synchronous with vertical and horizontal deflection signals applied to the deflection yoke;
(ii) a second dynamic voltage to said second auxiliary electrode, the second dynamic voltage being synchronous with the vertical and horizontal deflection signals applied to the deflection yoke; and
(iii) a static focusing voltage to said first and third focusing electrodes, the static focusing voltage being higher than the first and second dynamic voltages.

Abstract
In an electron gun for cathode ray tubes in which the second of three focusing electrodes is divided into first, second, and third auxiliary electrodes, applying a first dynamic voltage synchronous with vertical and horizontal deflection signals to the first and third auxiliary electrodes, a second dynamic voltage synchronous with the deflection signals to the second auxiliary electrode, and a static focusing voltage higher than the maximum of the first and second dynamic voltages to the first and third focusing electrodes. The electron gun uses two dynamic focusing voltages in a low voltage driving method for low dynamic focusing voltages, thereby greatly reducing the possibility of an arc discharge between electrodes and compensating for astigmatism of the electron beam due to the non-uniform magnetic field of the deflection yoke. A sharp picture is achieved by improving the focusing of the electron beam.
