Contol Grid Focussin Components of CRT EGUN Produces constant stream of electrons. Tower) Sets intensity of spot on screen (the more negative the control ~s Focusing grid voltage the fewer electrons pass through). seten_ | Forces e-beam into narrow stream (otherwise repel). ws Defector i cain” | Indicates target phosphor spot. ws vigh positve | 15,000 - 20,000 V accelerates e-beam to screen.
