Definitions

  • the object of the present invention is to increase the efficiency beyond the usual values and especially beyond the value of
  • the given value of about 50% represents a limit value which cannot be exceeded by way of further experimental development on the basis of the usual conceptions known in the art for the oscillation performance in oscillations with travel periods. It will be explained hereinafter why the value of approximately 50% must be the limit for a continuous further development along the known lines.
  • the present invention does not deal with instructions which serve for the Asolution of the problems encountered in the short wave apparatus hitherto employed, but departs from obsolete laws, and shows principally novel ways which require, in order to be followed with success, novel tubes and circuits.
  • the short wave apparatus according to the invention and having tubes with one or several cathodes or sources of emission and more particularly several electrodes ppsitively biased and in which the cathode is preferably not included in the circuit of the electrodes carrying alternating current, is characterized by such arrangement of the electrodes and choice of operating conditions that the electrons which, as regards the excitation oi.' oscillations, enter with proper phase relation the alternating field between the electrodes and deliver their energy.
  • Tubes will preferably be used whose electrodes are at different distances from the cathode, and the arrangement of the electrodes and choice of the operating conditions will be such that a part of the electrodes (useful electrodes) primarily those which carry only alternating voltages, and no direct current or a fraction of the total emission current, and that another part of the electrodes (absorption electrodes) serves primarily only for receiving electrons without carrying an appreciable alternating voltage, and at least some having the frequency to be generated.

  • Figures 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 are diagrammatic showings of modifications of electron discharge devices embodying my invention.
  • the tube schematically shown in Figure 1 comprises substantially two parallel plates Ai and A2. It is assumed that between the plates there exists a transverse electrical field having constant strength and direction, and a magnetic field of constant magnitude and direction whose lines of force extend at right angles to the plane of the drawings. The projections of the lines of force i. e. the limits of the effective zone of the magnetic field H are indicated by small crosses, It is also assumed that the strength of the magnetic field is such that the radius of curvature of the electron paths is smaller than half of the interplate distance d. With ⁇ these assumptions, an electron at K' and having an initial velocity vo with any direction, will move in a cycloid shaped course either towards the left or towards the right depending on the direction of the magnetic field.
  • Figure 2 shows schematically a similar tube. Contrary to the preceding example in addition to the constant transverse direct field, a transverse electrical field with alternating direction and intensity is assumed between the plates A1 and Aa. The electrons are assumed to originate at an emission source K located for instance in the centerplane between the plates, i. e. they pass from this side into the plate system and move towards an electrode N at the right side extending at right angie to the aforementioned center plane.
  • an emission source K located for instance in the centerplane between the plates, i. e. they pass from this side into the plate system and move towards an electrode N at the right side extending at right angie to the aforementioned center plane.
  • Adjacent electrodes are connected with each other by identical oscillatory circuits L and C, On their travel from the cathode K to the absorption electrode N the electrons must remain within each anode cage for a period equal to approximately the duration of one half oscillation cycle.
  • the polaritles indicated at the connection points of the oscillatory inductance L relate to the superimposed alternating potential and are meant for electrons which happen to be at the end of the useful electrodes A1, A3 and As for instance. 'I'he length of the anode cages, or the distance between the center normal, or perpendicular center plane of an electrode and the center normal of the following electrode must be matched with the velocity of the electrons and the frequency to be generated.
  • the alternating field must just have the maximum.
  • the first of the electrons with respect to the cages or electrodes are properly controlled in accordance with the oscillations of the connected circuits.
  • the electron accelerated by the direct bias potential thus loses in stages its velocity, and reaches the electrode N with zero velocity in the most favorable case.
  • Figure 4 represents a cross section through a rotation-symmetrical structure of a tube using the principle of the tube in Figure 3, with the exception that only two useful electrodes Ai and Az are provided, and this tube contains instead two cathodes Ki and K2.
  • the absorption electrode N is situated at the axis of the system.
  • an alternating potential is generated between the two cylinder halves, and if the magnetic field strength is so chosen that the time of rotation of the electrons is justl equal to an oscillation cycle, then at first two principal conditions exist. In one case the electron moves in proper phase from K1. i. e. it just passes with its high velocity through the slot plane S1. if the transverse electrical field between the electrodes Ai and Az opposes its movement.
  • the electron moves upon the electrode A1 negatively excited by the alternating field. In this case it furnishes energy to the outer circuit and slows down its sped of rotation, its path radius becomes smaller since the magnetic field remains constant. The angular velocity of the electron remains practically constant. It repeats its rotation until it has arrived on its spiral path at the absorption electrode N. The electron impinges ⁇ approximately with zero velocity, although this electrode N has a high positive potential. This signifies, therefore, that the electron has given up its entire energy received while entering the cylinder, to the alternating eld, i. e. to the oscillation electrodes. The einciency is about 100%. In the extreme case, the absorption electrode N needs not be cooled.
  • the second case namely in which the electron enters with improper phase from K: through the slot Sz into the discharge space, therefore moving towards an electrode A positively excited at this moment by the alternating voltage disregarding the positive steady bias potential can be readily visualized.
  • the electron derives additional energy from the alternating field, increasing thereby its velocity of rotation, its path will be widened and it flies towards the electrode A with the highest incidental voltage, and is thus removed from the alternating field.
  • the same principal considerations are obviously also true where a single cathode k only is provided.
  • the course of the electrons will furthermore be so influenced that they travel from their source no longer in any voluntary fashion, but proceed in a regulated sequence.
  • Special auxiliary electrodes disposed in direct proximity of the cathode are suited to carry out this cathode control.
  • FIG. 5a shows the top view of a tube according to the invention containing auxiliary electrodes.
  • the discharge space has the form of the volute type turbine casing. It is limited by four useful electrodes A1. Az, m, and A4 gradually decreasing in size in the direction of the electron flight, and representing sectors of a prismatic hollow body.
  • 'I'he cathode K is located at the circumference of the prism extending parallel to the surface lines of said prism, and surrounded at the outside by a directive semi-cylinder Z which concentrates the electron current up to a certain degree.
  • auxiliary electrodes G Between cathode K and the inlet opening into the rst electrode sector A1 one or several perforated auxiliary electrodes G are provided which can take over the function of a pulling and control grid or both.
  • Two oppositely disposed useful electrodes are always connected with each otherby a bent connection member B1; and Bia respectively.
  • An electromagnetic coil R produces the magnetic field.
  • electromagnets could be used for this purpose also.
  • the operating conditions and the dimensions of the electrodes are different and taken parallel to the electron travel path must be so chosen that at the travel of an electron from the center normal (radial center plane) of an electrode to the center normal of the following electrode, the sign of the superimposed alternating fleld is reversed.
  • An input circuit I is connected between the cathode K vand the grid G properly biased.
  • the focusing electrode Z is biased negatively with respect to the cathode.
  • 'I'he output circuit comprises an inductance L and a capacity C connected to oppositely disposed groups of electrodes Aa.
  • A4 and A1 As. 'I'he voltage supply is represented at Ua.
  • the input voltage has a frequency related to the natural frequency of oscillation of the output circuit such that the modulation of the electrons will cause the output circuit to oscillate at its natural frequency.
  • Figure 5b shows a side view of the same tube indicating clearly the' arrangement and the position of the side or absorption electrodes N.
  • Figure 5c likewise shows an elevation of the tube. There is indicated herein the discharge vessel E as well as the electrode connections.
  • the two bent connections B1.: and Bm have an oscillatory circuit L C connected thereto which circuit is positioned preferably outside the discharge vessel E.
  • phase jump or reversal of the phase relates to the phase difference existing at the place of the discharge space considered between the periodically oscillating field, and the velocity component of the electron extending parallel to the electrical field.
  • Figure 'I shows the principle of such electrode system.
  • 'I'he electrode system may also be in twin arrangement ( Figure 8) or in the form of a symmetrical cylinder ( Figures 9 and l0).
  • This box-like arrangement of electrodes can obviously be carried out in the proper sense in all oscillatory tube circuits to which the travel time of the electrons is of the order oi the time of oscillation for a complete cycle of the produced frequency.
  • the electrons going out from the cathode K go. through an alternating field in such phase that they deliver energy to this alternating field. Since electrons continuously come out of the cathode, only half of the electrons work in the desired way, while the other half come out of the cathode in the wrong phase; that is, they leave the cathode at such a point of time that the result is not a delivery of energy but an absorption of energy from the alternating field. In between, the energy balance will correspondingly be zero.
  • oscillating in equal phase can now 'be connected -with each other and a common oscillatory circuit comprising inductances L and capacities C can be inserted between the two groups. If the mutual capacities of the electrodes which are added, cause a disturbing effect an oscillatory circuit can be inserted always between tw o adjacent electrodes.
