Abstract

255,983. General Electric Co., Ltd., and Thompson, M. May 15, 1925. Vacuum tubes.-A valve has an uncarbonized cathode of tungsten or tungsten-molybdenum alloy containing thorium and giving the electron emission characteristic of a surface film of therium, a filling of helium at a pressure not greater than a few mm. of mercury, for instance, 3 mm., and not less than 0.1 mm. of mercury. and magnesium or similar reducing metal, having at room pressure a vapour pressure much less than that of potassium, deposited on the inner wall of the bulb. The deposit of magnesium is obtained by attaching a piece of the metal to the anode and heating the anode bv electron bombardment. Specifications 148,132, 184,446, and 248,956 are referred to.
