Abstract

289,762. Vereinigte Gl³hlampen-und Elektricitõts Akt.-Ges. April 30, 1927, [Convention date]. Vacuum tubes; R÷ntgen-ray tubes.-Cathodes for discharge tubes such as radio valves, rectifiers and R÷ntgen-ray tubes are coated with alkaline earth metals or their oxides by introducing into the tube an alloy of the alkaline earth metal not oxidizing in air, decomposing the alloy in vacuo and vaporizing it partially or completely to form a thin deposit on the core wire of the cathode. The alkaline earth metal may be alloyed with an electropositive metal vaporizing at not too high a temperature. Bariummagnesium alloy may be attached to the anode near to, and on the side facing, the cathode and the anode heated by high-frequency induction to melt and decompose the alloy and to vaporize the barium or both metals. The vaporized metals produce and maintain a high vacuum. The barium deposit on the cathode is free from oxide and firmly adherent and may be partially oxidized subsequently.
