No. For TV set CRTS, the rise time is effectively instantaneous; it
is the time it takes the beam diameter to pass a single point. The
fall time for the fluoresece is not zero and varies with phosphor type,
but 5 milliseconds is very long for CRTs, becuase their fluorescence
decay is indeed pretty much exponential. The phosphorescence
decay is nonexponential.
