The screen is coated in phosphorous.
Sneighke:
That is completely false. CRTs depend on phosphors. Three differing ones. Red, green, and blue.
Though phosphorus is an element used, it's not what "screens are coated with".
Cadmium, Phosphor material and Lead coated glass of CRT that's so TOXIC.
plz tell me
There are: CRT monitors (those fat monitors) and LCD monitors (flat screens)
CRT screens can work with an input signal with varying refresh rates while TFT displays have a manufacturer-set refresh rate. TFT screens however produce clearer images than CRT.
CRT screens don't have a port for you to plug in a HDMI cable.
plz tell me
CRT monitors are the old traditional fat monitors that look like TVs, and TFT are flat screens.
The previous generation of televisions were known as CRT televisions. CRT stands for cathode ray tube. The tube sent a stream of electrons from the back of the tube to the front phosphor coated glass face. The electrons caused the phosphors to glow according to the intensity of the electron beam.
A cathode ray tube (CRT) was the main way images were presented to people before LCD, Plasma and LED screens were produced. Everyone who watched television or used a computer before 1996 or so watched CRT screens.
CRT stands for Cathode Ray Tube, This is the way that the image is projected onto the screen. In much the same way as old style TVs and is the reason CRT screens have that big back end (to accomadate the Cathode Ray Tube) This is different from newer Computer Monitors such as TFT screens; Trans reflective. Etc
Yes, all LCD TVs are flat screens. Plasmas, LED, and some CRT TVs are also flat screens.
CRT stands for Cathode Ray Tube. This technology was often used in television sets and computer monitors. It is now being replaced by LCD and LED screens. The first CRT was made by Ferdinand Braun, a German pyhsicist, in 1897.
