DuMont made a small number of classroom demonstrator scopes with a 20" electrostatic CRT. They used a green phosphor (P1) version of their 20AP4 television CRT: https://www.earlytelevision.org/images/dumont_20ap4.jpg |

If anything, the deeper the tube and the smaller the surface (small deflection angle), the higher the bandwidth. See this description of a 13 GHz scan convertor CRT which was over 3 meters deep. So a CRT with big surface area would make for a low bandwidth scope. |
