Abstract:
Cathode-ray tubes with a shadow mask effective in minimizing the moiré effect are disclosed. The shadow mask has a plurality of apertures allowing electron beams to pass through, where a vertical pitch Py between each of the neighboring apertures along a minor axis of the shadow mask and a scanning pitch Ps between each of the scan lines of the electron beams satisfy the following relations hip: ((2n+1)/4)−0.1≦Ps/Py≦((2n+1)/4)+0.1 where n is an integer not less than three.
