To provide a manufacturing method for a cathode-ray tube and a phosphor panel, having good luminescent brightness and stable quality, in the case of a cathode-ray tube wherein a heat absorbing film provided on a conductive reflection film covering a phosphor screen on an inner surface of a panel has lower infrared reflectance than the reflection film has.

An intermediate layer 16 made of an organic material is provided between the conductive reflection film 14 provided on the phosphor screen 11 formed on the inner surface of the panel 10 and the heat absorbing film 15, Thus, even if cracks or the like exist in the reflection film 14, a solvent in the absorbing film 15 provided thereon can be prevented from permeating into the phosphor screen 11, and the surface quality and luminescent brightness of the phosphor screen 11 can be retarded from deteriorating. As a solvent for the material of the intermediate film, a solvent compatible with the absorbing film is used. By holding its affinity with the absorbing film 15 when heated, the reflection film 14 and the absorbing film are bound on each other by a sol-gel reaction, and the intermediate film 16 is burned away by heating in the process of sticking the panel 10 to a funnel part 7 with frit.
