  2. Cathode-ray tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathode-ray_tube

    A cathode-ray tube (CRT) is a vacuum tube containing one or more electron guns, which emit electron beams that are manipulated to display images on a phosphorescent screen. [2] The images may represent electrical waveforms on an oscilloscope , a frame of video on an analog television set (TV), digital raster graphics on a computer monitor , or ...

    Comparison of CRT, LCD, plasma, and OLED displays. The following table compares cathode-ray tube (CRT), liquid-crystal display (LCD), plasma and organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display device technologies. These are the most often used technologies for television and computer displays. A less detailed comparison of a wider variety of ...

  5. History of display technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_display_technology

    One of the earliest electronic displays is the cathode-ray tube (CRT), which was first demonstrated in 1897 and made commercial in 1922. [1] The CRT consists of an electron gun that forms images by firing electrons onto a phosphor -coated screen. The earliest CRTs were monochrome and were used primarily in oscilloscopes and black and white ...

  6. Vector monitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_monitor

    A vector monitor, vector display, or calligraphic display is a display device used for computer graphics up through the 1970s. It is a type of CRT, similar to that of an early oscilloscope. In a vector display, the image is composed of drawn lines rather than a grid of glowing pixels as in raster graphics. The electron beam follows an arbitrary ...

  7. Crookes tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crookes_tube

    The anode is the electrode at the bottom. A Crookes tube (also Crookes–Hittorf tube) [1] is an early experimental electrical discharge tube, with partial vacuum, invented by English physicist William Crookes [2] and others around 1869–1875, [3] in which cathode rays, streams of electrons, were discovered. [4]

    Allen B. DuMont. Allen Balcom DuMont, also spelled Du Mont, (January 29, 1901 – November 14, 1965) was an American electronics engineer, scientist and inventor who improved the cathode ray tube in 1931 for use in television receivers. Seven years later he manufactured and sold the first commercially practical television set to the public.

  9. Comparison of display technology - Wikipedia

    Experimental, possibly virtual reality. Depends on system. Major technologies are CRT, LCD and its derivatives (Quantum dot display, LED backlit LCD, WLCD, OLCD), Plasma, and OLED and its derivatives (Transparent OLED, PMOLED, AMOLED). An emerging technology is Micro LED. Cancelled and now obsolete technologies are SED and FED.
