My present invention relates to app P ticularly useful for the generation of ultra short It has been proposed to generate ultra short waves by unidirectionally passing groups or pulses of electrons past a gap forming part of a space or cavity resonator. My present invention Figure 2 is a modification in which an electron emitting surface has been used to replace the negatively charged anode of Figure 1; and
Figure 3 illustratesdi-agrammatically still another modification of my invention.
Turning to Figure 1, I have provided a vacuum tube having an hermetically sealed, evacuated, cylindrical glass container 2. Within the tube 2 there is provided a cathode 4 atone base of the tube, a disc-like plate 6 at the other base of the tube2, and intermediate these two electrodes there is provided a perforated disc-like grid or control electrode 8. Grid 8 extends acros the entire cross-section of tube 2. Cathode 4 is provided with a heater element III which may be energized by a suitable filament transformer l2 whos primary is connected to any suitable source, not shown. 'The cathode 4, as shown, is connected directly to ground or may be maintained at a small'negative potential with respect to ground by inserting a suitable biasing source in series with the grounding lead l4. Similarly, the disc-like anode 6 may be connected to ground through a variable source of potential l6 which, preferably, is adjusted so as to subject the anode 6 to a, negative'potential with respect to ground l8. The grid 8 is connected by way of conductor to potentiometer 22 in shunt to potential source 24. Tap 26 is so adjusted on potentiometer 22 as to cause the grid 8 to be subjected to a high positive potentialt As a consequence of the foregoing construction and connections, electrons are attracted from cathode 4 by the positively charged grid 8 and are given such velocity that they pass' through grid 8 only to approach the negatively charged anode 6 which now serves to slow up the electrons and repel them. In addition, after the electrons pass through the grid 8, the grid is now behind the electron and tends to pull them back towards the cathode 4. It therefore follows that clouds of electrons are caused to oscillate through and about the grid 8.
By appropriately mounting a cavity resonator 28 about the tube 2, as shown, the pulses, clouds or groups of electrons oscillating between cathode 4 and anode 6 andthrough grid 8 inductively excite the resonator 28. By appropriate choice of voltages impressed upon the anode 6 and the grid 8 and by appropriately choosing the size of the gap 30 for the cavity resonator 28, as well as the dimension of the cavity resonator 28, the electron cloud oscillations may be brought into synchronism with the resonant waves set up within the cavity oscillator, thereby producing oscillations of extremely high frequency and high power. Output energy may be taken inductively from the cavity resonator by means of the metal loop or conductor 32 insulatingly passed through the walls of the capacity resonator 28. The latter is preferably made of a high conducting metal, such as copper, although it may also be made of invar and coated on its interior surface with silver or copper. The cavity resonator 28, together with the tube 2, may be placed within a temperature controlled container 34 provided with thermostatically'operated heaters and fans so as to maintain the temperature of the system constant and thereby enhance frequency stability. As a further method 'of frequency control, a loop 36 may be provided for picking up some of the energy within the cavity resonator and this high frequency energy may be frequencyv divided by a frequency divider 38 and fed to a detector 40. The detector 48 is also fed with constant frequency oscillations from a crystal controlled osclllator 42 which, preferably, is temperature controlled. If desired, of course, the output of the crystal oscillator may be frequency multiplied by a suitable frequency multiplier before being fed into the detector 48.-
The beat frequency resulting from action of detector 40 is fed to a coil 43 and thence to a pair of off-tuned circuits 44, 46 having over-lapping resonance curves. The frequency discriminator system consisting of ofl-tuned circuits -44, 46 may also be mounted within a temperature controlled chamber 48. The outputs of discriminator circuits 44, 46 are fed to detectors 50, 52 connected in opposition across resistor 54. When the system is operating at its'proper frequency,
. there will be no voltage drop across resistor 54.
However, with departure in frequency of the oscillator from that for which the beat frequency 40 lies at the cross-over point of the characteristics of circuits 44, 46, a voltage drop will be established across resistance 54 and this is fed through conductors 56 to a resistor 58 in series with the grid supply source 24. The voltage then injected into resistor 58 is of such sense and magnitude as to change the frequency ofv of source till. This will serve to assist in the prevention of electron diffusion. However, the outer surfaceof the resonators may be connected directly to ground or, if desired, may be subjected to a positive D. C. potential with respect to ground.
In connection with Figure l, bi-metallic strip I04 closes when the temperature within the heat insulated chamber 34 becomes too high, thereby causing fan I06 .to operate, in turn causing circulation of airaround the oscillator andthrough openings in the chamber. When the temperature is too low, strip I08 closes,'energizing heater IIO from source II2. A similar fan and heater system may be placed within chamber 48.
In order to expedite temperature control,
, metal fins may be added to the. outer surfaces be fed to the plate 6 by connection of conductors I to resistance 60. By appropriately. controlling the injected modulation voltages, the output of thebscillatorwill be frequency modulated and substantially free of amplitude modulation. I
The oscillator of Figure 2 is'similar in construction-and operation to that shown in Figure 1 with the exception that the anode Ii has been replaced by a cathode I heated by heater 9 and energized by transformer II. Variable negative voltages from sources I3 and I may be provided for subjecting the cathodes 4, 1 to initial negative potentials with respect to ground. Also in Figure 2 the inductance of the grid conductor may be tuned out by the series tuning condenser 22 at the operatingrfrequenoy.
As shown diagrammatically in Figure 3 the grid may be made in the form of two perforated or woven metal discs 3I, 33. The resonator may then occupy the position shown diagrammatically at 35.
r In all of the modifications shown, the cavity resonator may be moved along the tube for optimum operation. For example, it is not essential that the grid be symmetrically disposed with respect to the gap in the cavity. resonator, but rather the entire resonator, if desired, may be arranged so that the gap is unsymmetrical to the grid or entirely to either side thereof.
Also, the cathodes may be in the form of electron guns producing a concentrated, thin cylindrical stream of electrons or, if desired, the cathodes may be of the type to provide the emission of a hollow cylinder of electrons, which Having thus described my invention, what I claim is:
