A diagram showing a Crookes tube connected to a high voltage supply. The Maltese cross has no external electrical connection. Cathode rays are so named because they are emitted by the negative electrode, or cathode, in a vacuum tube.
Electrons (cathode rays) released from the cathode plate are accelerated down the tube to the left toward the anode, and strike the end wall, which fluoresces. The Maltese cross shaped anode blocks the electrons, casting a shadow on the glowing end wall, demonstrating that the cathode rays travel in straight lines.
English: Diagram of JJ Thomson's experiment with cathode rays. Cathode rays (blue) emitted by the cathode on the left were defelcted by an electric field (yellow) in the center. Cathode rays (blue) emitted by the cathode on the left were defelcted by an electric field (yellow) in the center.
This SVG diagram contains embedded raster graphics. Such images are liable to produce inferior results when scaled to different sizes (as well as possibly being very inefficient in file size). If appropriate to do so, they should be replaced with images created using vector graphics .
When sufficient voltage is applied across the electrodes, the gas ionizes, forming a glow discharge around the cathode electrode. The VR tube then acts as a negative resistance device; as the current through the device increases, the amount of ionization also increases, reducing the resistance of the device to further current flow.
Schematic symbol used in circuit diagrams for a vacuum tube, showing control grid. The control grid is an electrode used in amplifying thermionic valves (vacuum tubes) such as the triode, tetrode and pentode, used to control the flow of electrons from the cathode to the anode (plate) electrode. The control grid usually consists of a cylindrical ...
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 ...
