Abstract: A metal vapour discharge tube includes cylindrical dispenser blocks 18 and 21 of sintered tungsten which are porous and support metal whose vapour is to form at least part of the active medium of the tube. Thus, the dispenser blocks retain the metal holding it in position in both its solid and liquid states. Heat shields 25, 26, 27 and 28 serve to retain heat within the envelope 1 of the discharge tube and uniformly heat the cylinders 18 and 21.

Abstract: Discharge tube apparatus includes an outer containing vessel 8 and a structure comprising five metal cylinders 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 located coaxially within it. Each of the metal cylinders includes projecting spacers 15 on its outer surface which serve to space it from adjacent ones. Such a structure is thermally insulating and enables a large temperature difference to be maintained between the interior of the discharge tube and the outer containing vessel 8. In other embodiments (not shown), a plurality of structures are included disposed along the axis of the tube. Also dispenser segments for dispensing part of the amplifying medium of a metal vapour laser may be included and arranged to shield vulnerable surfaces in the tube from direct exposure to the discharge.

Abstract: A novel field emitter material (13), field emission electron source (2), and commercially feasible fabrication method is described. The inventive field emission electron source produces reliable electron currents of up to 400 mA/cm at 200 volts. The emitter (2) is robust and the current it produces is not sensitive to variability of vacuum or the distance between the emitter tip and the cathode. The novel emitter (2) has a sharp turn-on near 100 volts.

Abstract: A field emitter array magnetic sensor (FEAMS) device, comprising: an anode; a base plate member having on a first side thereof a plurality of gated field emitter elements thereon, in spaced proximal relationship to the anode. The plurality of gated field emitter elements and the anode structure are arranged so that each of the gated field emitter elements is in electron emitting relationship to varying electron impingement sites depending on intensity of the magnetic field on the gated field emitter element. The device includes structure for sensing the locations of the anode structure electron impingement sites receiving electrons from the plurality of gated field emitter elements, and determining the strength and orientation of the magnetic field. Also disclosed are various anode configurations which may be usefully employed in the FEAMS device of the invention.

Abstract: A cold-cathode field emission device controls electron emission by using a current source (101) coupled to the emitter (102). The open circuit oltage of the current source (101) is less than the voltage at which the FED would emit electrons. Application of an accelerating potential (105) on the gate (103) enables electron emission. Electron emission from the FED is governed by the current source (101).

Abstract: A lamp apparatus (10A) for producing a beam of light that can be used as a part of a source for a projection system. The lamp apparatus (10A) of the present invention produces a beam of light (26) originating from a small aperture (15). The apparatus includes an electrodeless lamp body in the form of elongated outer tube (11) having a hollow interior. An inner sleeve (12) fits or is deposited inside the outer tube (11), the inner sleeve (12) having a fill (23) containing generally cylindrically or spherical shaped bore. The sleeve provides temperature resistant and reflection properties. Electrodes (24 and 25) positioned either internally or externally of the lamp body (11) are provided for producing radio frequency energy that excite the fill (23) contained in the bore of the inner sleeve (12) to form a plasma light source of intense heat. The light thus generated by the plasma in a relatively large volume is constrained to exit through a small aperture at either one, or both, ends of the apparatus (10A).
