Abstract

See full text

In an electrophotographic process for manufacturing a luminescent screen assembly on an interior surface of a faceplate panel of a CRT, the panel is first coated with a conductive layer and then overcoated with a photoconductive layer. A substantially uniform charge is established on the photoconductive layer. Selected areas of the photoconductive layer are exposed to actinic radiation, through a shadow mask, to affect the charge on the layer. The unexposed areas of the photoconductive layer are developed with triboelectrically-charged, dry-powdered, light-absorptive screen structure material. The photoconductive layer is reexposed to further discharge those open areas free of the light absorptive material while retaining the charge on those areas having light absorptive matrix material thereon. The reexposure increases the voltage contrast between the exposed and the unexposed areas of the photoconductive layer. A second development of the unexposed areas of the photoconductive layer deposits additional light-absorptive screen structure material on the previously deposited material to increase the opacity of the matrix formed thereby.
