Abstract:
Disclosed is an impregnated cathode structure for a cathode ray tube and its manufacturing method, in which electron emitting material impregnated in a pellet is free from an effect of the welding heat generated when the pellet is secured to a heater sleeve. The impregnated cathode structure has a pellet assembly including a pellet and a pellet fixing sheet. The pellet is attached to a first surface of the pellet fixing sheet, which has a plurality of protuberances. The pellet is manufactured by pressing and sintering, and impregnating electron emitting material into the porous of the pellet. The pellet sleeve is inserted in and welded to a heater sleeve. A heater sleeve is welded to a second surface of the pellet fixing sheet, which is opposite to the first surface.
Abstract:
There is provided an impregnated-type cathode substrate comprising a large particle diameter low porosity region and a small particle diameter high porosity region which is provided in a side of an electron emission surface of the large particle diameter low porosity region and has an average particle diameter smaller than an average particle diameter of the large particle diameter low pore region and a porosity higher than a porosity of the large particle diameter low porosity region, the impregnated-type cathode being impregnated with an electron emission substance.
Abstract:
An electric discharge tube or discharge lamp comprising a scandate dispenser cathode which is composed of a cathode body and a coating having an emissive surface, said cathode body including a matrix of at least one refractory metal and/or a refractory alloy and a barium compound which is in contact with the matrix material to supply barium to the emissive surface by means of a chemical reaction with said matrix material, and the coating containing one or more multilayers which may include a bottom layer of tungsten and/or a tungsten alloy, an intermediate layer of rhenium and/or a rhenium alloy and a top layer of scandium oxide, a mixture of scandium oxide and rare-earth metal oxides, a scandate and/or a scandium alloy, is characterized by a long service life and a high emission-current density.
