12 Claims. (Cl. 250-275) This invention relates to electron discharge apparatus and more particularly to such apparatus adapted to generate ultra high frequency oscillations, for example, oscillations of frequencies of the order of 3000 kilocycles or less.
One object of this invention is to decrease the electron transit times in high frequency electron discharge devices whereby the operating range of such devices is increased.
Another object of this invention is to increase and to make uniform the electron velocities in electron discharge devices.
In one illustrative embodiment of this invention, an electron discharge device comprises a cup-shaped anode, which may constitute a portion of the enclosing vessel of the device, and a cathode within the anode and positioned rela tively remote from the base thereof. The cathode is encompassed by a cylindrical metallic screen or shield electrode open at its ends and extending to adjacent the base of the anode. The shield electrode is encompassed in turn by an auxiliary or ionization electrode having a perforated or mesh portion between the base of the anode and the end of the shield electrode thereadjacent. The enclosing vessel of the device may have an ionizable medium therein, such as an inert gas, for example argon or a mixture of gases or of a gas and mercury, at a low pressure.
The auxiliary electrode is operated at a positive potential with respect to the cathode sufficient to produce ionization by electron bombardment of the gaseous medium, the current between the cathode and the auxiliary electrode being confined by theshield electrode to paths around the end of the shield electrode in juxtaposition to the base of the anode. The ionization of the gaseous medium produces an abundance of free electrons within the cavity .or chamber defined by the shield electrode and the perforated or mesh portion of the auxiliary electrode and these electrons constitute the source of energy for the high frequency field of the device.
The cathode is positioned relatively remote from the perforated or mesh portion of the auxiliary electrode and the base of the anode is dis- The invention and the various features thereof will be understood more clearly from the following detailed description with reference to the accompanying drawing in which:
Fig. 1 is an elevational view in perspective of an electron discharge device constructed in accordance with this invention, a portion of the inclosing vessel and of the internal electrodes being broken away to show the internal structure more clearly; and
Fig. 2 is a diagrammatic view of an ultra high frequency transmitter including an electron discharge device of the construction shown in Fig. 1.
Referring now to the drawing, the embodiment of this invention therein illustrated comprises an electron discharge device including an enclosing vessel having a bulbous vitreous portion In and a cup-shaped metallic portion H serving as the anode of the device. The metallic portion H is provided with a flaring flange l2 hermetically sealed to the vitreous portion Ill and also with an inwardly extending annular flange l3 forming a seating member upon which other electrodes of the device are supported.
Mounted upon the flange I3 is an auxiliary or ionization electrode including a flange It seated upon an annular insulating spacer or washer I5, for example of a ceramic material, in turn seated upon the flange l3, and an elongated cylindrical or sleeve portion l6 extending to adjacent the" base ll of the cup-shaped anode ll. Preferably the cylindrical portion is imperforate and disposed coaxially within the anode. The end of the cylindrical or sleeve portion IS in juxtaposition to the base I I has extending thereacross a perforated disc member 3, such as a mesh screen, disposed parallel to the base I! of the anode. The auxiliary electrode may be associated with an external circuit through a leading-in conductor l9 sealed in the vitreous portion I0 and extending therefrom.
An elongated, imperforate, cylindrical shield or screen electrode 20 is disposed coaxially with the auxiliary electrode and extends to adjacent the perforated disc portion [8 thereof. The shield or screen electrode 20 is provided with an annular flange 2| which is seated upon an insulating spacer or washer 22 in turn seated upon the annular flange It. The flanges 2|v and I4 and the insulating spacers l5 and 22 may be securely held in position upon the flange l3 by a locking ring 23 threaded to the metallic portion of the enclosing vessel and bearing against an insulating washer 24.
Disposed within the shield or screen electrode 25 encloses a heater filament 26 encased in. ceramic material 21 and provided with leading-H '20 is a cathode comprising a cup-shaped metallic,
anode and coated with a thermionic material;
suchas alkaline earth metal oxides. 'Ehe shell in conductors 23. One of the conductors 28 is connected to the shell 25 by an integral tab 29 extending from the shell, and also to the shield electrode 20 bya metallic strap 3|! so that during operation of the device the cathode shell 25 and the shield or screen electrode are at substantially the same potential.
The enclosing vessel III, II or the device may have an ionizable atmosphere therein, such as a filling of an inert gas at low pressure. For ex.- ample, the vessel may have a filling of argon at a pressure of 0.1 millimeter of mercury or less, or of a mixture of, gases or of a as and mercury.
The QSDacing between the base I! of the anode and the perforated or screen portion l8 of the auxiliary electrode is small in comparison to the mean free path of the molecules of the gaseous medium. The spacing between the cathode 25 and the perforated or screen portion I8 preferably is relatively large to provide a long distance path between the cathode and the auxiliary electrode.
The electron; discharge device maybe incorporated, as shown in ;Fig. 2, in a transmission systern, including coaxial tubular conductors El and 32*. The outer conductor 3| encompasses the electron discharge device and' the Edevice is properly positioned within this conductor by a cylindrical metallic sleeve 33,: spaced from the conductor 3| by a metallic annulus 34 and from the cylindrical portion, of the anode by a band of insulation 35. The anode |!,|'l may be maintained at a positive potential with respect to the outerlconductor 3| by a suitable source "such as a battery 39. The inner conductor 32 encompasses extensions of the leading-in conductors 26 andJB for the heater filament 26 and the auxiliary electrode l6, l8. The eifective length of thecoaxial system, and hence the tuning thereof, may be varied by a slidable condenser member including a metallic disc 36 contacting with the outer conductor 3|, asecond metallic disc 31 contacting with the inner conductor 32 and an insulating disc 38 spacing the metallic discs 36 and 31 and suitably secured thereto. 7
The heater filament 26 maybe energized from a Editable source, such as a battery 40 and a suitable potential, positive with respect to the oathode, may be applied to the auxiliary electrode |6, |8 bya source such asra battery 4 The potential applied to the auxiliary electrode is sufficient to produce ionization of; the gaseous medium in the produce an arc trode. Because of the close spacing of the perforated portion l8 and the base I! or the anode,
the region therebetween operates as though no gaseous medium were present. The oscillations produced as above described are transmitted along the coaxial conductors 3| and 3% to a suit-' able receiving or ampiifying apparatt'n.
Inasmuch as the free electrons produced within the shield electrode 20 are in a field of uniform potential with respect to thecathode, they will travel to the anode at high and substantially uniform velocities. Furthermore, because of the increased velocities of the electrons, the transmit times thereofawill be very smailso that the derlce may be operated efliciently at extremely high frequencies. V
Devices oi the construction shown and described hereinabove may be operated also without the ionizable medium within the enclosing vessel, in which case the auxiiiary electrode I6, l8 serves as an accelerating electrode to assure uniform mean velocities for the electrodes in flowing to the anode.
