    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_camera_tube

    Vidicon tube 2 ⁄ 3 inch (17 mm) in diameter A display of numerous video camera tubes from the 1930s and 1940s, photographed in 1954, with iconoscope inventor Vladimir K. Zworykin. Video camera tubes are devices based on the cathode-ray tube that were used in television cameras to capture television images, prior to the introduction of charge ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathode-ray_tube

    The Braun tube became the foundation of 20th century TV. [ 15 ] In 1908, Alan Archibald Campbell-Swinton , fellow of the Royal Society (UK), published a letter in the scientific journal Nature , in which he described how "distant electric vision" could be achieved by using a cathode-ray tube (or "Braun" tube) as both a transmitting and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_dissector

    A Farnsworth image dissector tube. An image dissector, also called a dissector tube, is a video camera tube in which photocathode emissions create an "electron image" which is then swept up, down and across an anode to produce an electrical signal representing the visual image.

  5. Aquadag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquadag

    Aquadag is a trade name for a water-based colloidal graphite coating commonly used in cathode ray tubes (CRTs). It is manufactured by Acheson Industries, a subsidiary of ICI. The name is a shortened form of "Aqueous Deflocculated Acheson Graphite", [1] but has become a generic term for conductive graphite coatings used in vacuum tubes. Other ...

  6. Yttrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yttrium

    The red component of color television cathode ray tubes is typically emitted from an yttria (Y 2 O 3) or yttrium oxide sulfide (Y 2 O 2 S) host lattice doped with europium (III) cation (Eu 3+) phosphors. [15] [9] [i] The red color itself is emitted from the europium while the yttrium collects energy from the electron gun and passes it to the ...

  7. Beam-index tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam-index_tube

    The beam-index tube is a color television cathode ray tube (CRT) design, using phosphor stripes and active-feedback timing, rather than phosphor dots and a beam-shadowing mask as developed by RCA. Beam indexing offered much brighter pictures than shadow-mask CRTs, reducing power consumption, and as they used a single electron gun rather than ...
