The Design of Glass for Vixlim

Nowadays, CRTs are threatened by the flat panel displays (FPD). The screen quality of the CRT is one of best among the displays, however, the depth of CRTs becomes one of the most important design factor to maintain the dominated portion in the display market. When designing slim CRTs, the structure of the glass is important design factor because of the weight and safety. The stress in the glass is increased according to the shortening the total length of tube. The residual stress of the seal is also a major factor should be considered due to the large seal edge thickness. The glass design concept for Vixlim is introduced in this paper.
