Definitions

  • the annular face 45 of the cathode sleeve 31 is coated with a thermionically active substance prior to the assembly operation so that upon heating the cathode member by the application of current to the terminals 35 and 36 of the filament 34 electrons are emitted from the activated surface of the annular face 45 to form an electron beam 46.
  • This electron beam 46 is suitably controlled, limited and focused by the electrodes 49, 411, 48 and 33.
  • the electrode member 40 tends to spread the cathode ray beam 46 with any increase in negative potential.
  • the anode element 33 has a fixed aperture 3
  • the electrode 33 will collect any of the electrons which may have been spread out to cover a larger area than that of the aperture 3
  • modulation of the cathode ray beam may be accomplished without changing its diameter or boundaries.
  • the luminescent spot produced upon the fluorescent screen structiu'e 4 will then be of uniform size, that is, the boundaries will at all times remain constant, regardless of the modulating voltages impressed thereon.
