Claims
- 1. A method for forming a phosphor surface on a glass panel to be used in a cathode ray tube, comprising:sweeping a nozzle having a plurality of linearly located discharge holes and a liquid guiding section formed in the nozzle body, the holes having a nozzle sweep direction length and the liquid guiding section having a length such that the length of the liquid guiding section divided by the nozzle sweep direction length is greater than one and less than or equal to ten; and discharging from the nozzle a liquid to be used as a coating material in forming the phosphor surface to linearly coat a screen area of the glass panel.
- 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:maintaining the glass panel in a horizontal orientation during discharging of the liquid onto the glass panel.
- 3. The method of claim 2, further comprising:rotating the glass panel at a speed of 30 to 60 rpm to spread the liquid on an entire surface of the screen area of the glass panel; tilting the glass panel at 95 to 115 degrees relative to horizontal and rotating the glass panel at a speed of 50 to 150 rpm to discharge superfluous liquid from the glass panel; and drying the liquid to produce a phosphor film while rotating the glass panel at a speed of 10 to 150 rpm.
- 4. The method of claim 2, wherein the glass panel is completely flat.
- 5. The method of claim 2, wherein the nozzle sweep direction length is greater than a length of the hole in a direction perpendicular to the nozzle sweep direction.
- 6. The method of claim 2, wherein the length of the liquid guiding section divided by the nozzle sweep direction length is greater than or equal to three and less than or equal to eight.
- 7. The method of claim 1, further comprising:rotating the glass panel at a speed of 30 to 60 rpm to spread the liquid on an entire surface of the screen area of the glass panel; tilting the glass panel at 95 to 115 degrees relative to horizontal and rotating the glass panel at a speed of 50 to 150 rpm to discharge superfluous liquid from the glass panel; and drying the liquid to produce a phosphor film while rotating the glass panel at a speed of 10 to 150 rpm.
- 8. The method of claim 7, wherein the glass panel is completely flat.
- 9. The method of claim 7, wherein the nozzle sweep direction length is greater than a length of the hole in a direction perpendicular to the nozzle sweep direction.
- 10. The method of claim 7, wherein the length of the liquid guiding section divided by the nozzle sweep direction length is greater than or equal to three and less than or equal to eight.
- 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the glass panel is completely flat.
- 12. The method of claim 11, wherein the nozzle sweep direction length is greater than a length of the hole in a direction perpendicular to the nozzle sweep direction.
- 13. The method of claim 11, wherein the length of the liquid guiding section divided by the nozzle sweep direction length is greater than or equal to three and less than or equal to eight.
- 14. The method of claim 1, wherein the nozzle sweep direction length is greater than a length of the hole in a direction perpendicular to the nozzle sweep direction.
- 15. The method of claim 14, wherein the length of the liquid guiding section divided by the nozzle sweep direction length is greater than or equal to three and less than or equal to eight.
- 16. The method of claim 1, wherein the length of the liquid guiding section divided by the nozzle sweep direction length is greater than or equal to three and less than or equal to eight.
- 17. The method of claim 16, wherein said liquid is selected from the group consisting of a patterning resist, an inorganic pigment containing resin solution, and a phosphor suspension.
- 18. The method of claim 17, wherein said liquid comprises a phosphor suspension.
- 19. The method of claim 16, wherein said liquid comprises a viscosity of 15 centipoise.
- 20. The method of claim 19, wherein said liquid comprises a phosphor suspension.
- 21. The method of claim 1, wherein said liquid is selected from the group consisting of a patterning resist, an inorganic pigment containing resin solution, and a phosphor suspension.
- 22. The method of claim 21, wherein said liquid comprises a phosphor suspension.
- 23. The method of claim 1, wherein said liquid comprises a viscosity of 15 centipoise.
- 24. The method of claim 23, wherein said liquid comprises a phosphor suspension.
