An ionization vacuum gauge includes a linear cathode, an anode, and an ion collector. The linear cathode, the anode, and the ion collector are concentrically aligned and arranged from center to outer, in that order. The linear cathode includes a linear base and a field emission film deposited coating on the linear base. The ionization vacuum gauge with low power consumption can be used in a high vacuum system and/or some special vacuum system that is sensitive to heat and light. Such a gauge can be used to determine, simply yet accurately, pressures at relatively high vacuum levels.
Abstract:
A field emission device (6), in accordance with a preferred embodiment, includes a cathode electrode (61), a gate electrode (64), a separator (62), and a number of emissive units (63) composed of an emissive material. The separator includes an insulating portion (621) and a number of conductive portions (622). The insulating portion of the separator is configured between the cathode electrode and the gate electrode for insulating the cathode electrode from the gate electrode. The emissive units are configured on the separator at positions proximate to two sides of the gate electrode. The emissive units are in connection with the cathode electrode via the conductive portions respectively. The emissive units are distributed on the separator adjacent to two sides of the gate electrode, which promotes an ability of emitting electrons from the emissive material and the emitted electrons to be guided by the gate electrode toward a smaller spot they bombard.
