Abstract
491,287. Electrode materials. MARCONI'S WIRELESS TELEGRAPH CO., Ltd. Jan. 7, 1938, No. 578. Convention date, Jan. 30, 1937. Drawings to Specification. [Class 39 (i)] A secondary-electron-emitting electrode comprises a conductive base, for example of nickel, aluminium, silver, copper or alloys thereof, carrying a thin layer of an insulating derivative of an alkaline-earth metal, particularly the borate, on which is deposited an electron emissive layer, preferably an alkali-metal such as caesium or its oxide. The layers are prefer. ably not greater than À001 inch. The electrode exhibits the thin film field emission phenomenon of Malter. The borate is evaporated onto the conductive base from a heated filament. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 includes a Figure of a single stage multiplier to which the electrode is applied. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.
