  2. Cathode ray - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathode_ray

    After the electrons strike the back of the tube they make their way to the anode, then travel through the anode wire through the power supply and back through the cathode wire to the cathode, so cathode rays carry electric current through the tube. The current in a beam of cathode rays through a vacuum tube can be controlled by passing it ...

  3. J. J. Thomson - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._J._Thomson

    The cathode-ray tube by which J. J. Thomson demonstrated that cathode rays could be deflected by a magnetic field, and that their negative charge was not a separate phenomenon While supporters of the aetherial theory accepted the possibility that negatively charged particles are produced in Crookes tubes , [ citation needed ] they believed that ...

  4. Cathode-ray tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathode-ray_tube

    A cathode-ray tube (CRT) is a vacuum tube containing one or more electron guns, which emit electron beams that are manipulated to display images on a phosphorescent screen. [2] The images may represent electrical waveforms on an oscilloscope , a frame of video on an analog television set (TV), digital raster graphics on a computer monitor , or ...

  5. Crookes tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crookes_tube

    Crookes X-ray tube from around 1910 Another Crookes x-ray tube. The device attached to the neck of the tube (right) is an "osmotic softener". When the voltage applied to a Crookes tube is high enough, around 5,000 volts or greater, [16] it can accelerate the electrons to a high enough velocity to create X-rays when they hit the anode or the glass wall of the tube.

  6. Electron gun - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_gun

    Electron gun from an oscilloscope CRT Setup of an electron gun. 1. Hot cathode.2. Wehnelt cylinder.3. Anode. A direct current, electrostatic thermionic electron gun is formed from several parts: a hot cathode, which is heated to create a stream of electrons via thermionic emission; electrodes generating an electric field to focus the electron beam (such as a Wehnelt cylinder); and one or more ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaufmann–Bucherer...

    The radiation (generated at a copper cathode) was strongly accelerated by the field between cathode and anode in a highly evacuated discharge tube. The anode serving as a diaphragm was passed by the ray with constant velocity and drew the shadow image of two Wollaston wires on a phosphorescent screen behind a second diaphragm. If a current was ...

To embed this file in a particular language use the lang parameter with the appropriate language code, e.g. [[File:Cathode ray tube diagram-en.svg|lang=en]] for the English

  9. Teltron tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teltron_Tube

    A teltron tube (named for Teltron Inc., which is now owned by 3B Scientific Ltd.) is a type of cathode-ray tube used to demonstrate the properties of electrons. There were several different types made by Teltron including a diode, a triode, a Maltese Cross tube, a simple deflection tube with a fluorescent screen, and one which could be used to ...
