    techniques throughout to create the pattern on the display. Typically they use a cathode ray tube where the voltages on the x and y plats cause a dot on the screen to move. In the horizontal direction this is controlled by the time base, whereas in the vertical direction the deflection is proportional to the signal input. Essentially the signal is amplified and applied to the Y plates of the cathode ray tube. A cathode ray tube consists of a number of elements. There is an electron gun that generates

The phosphors used are comparable to the ones used in traditional Cathode Ray Tube televisions and computer monitors. Cathode Ray tubes are a high-vacuum tube in which cathode rays produce a luminous image on a fluorescent screen. With plasma technology, televisions are now able to display richer, more dynamic, and more realistic colors than the CRT televisions (The Canadian
