Definitions

  • My invention relates to electron discharge devices utilizing periodic electron beam deflection and particularly useful at ultra high frequencies.
  • a beam of electrons is directed between a pair of deflecting electrodes toward an apertured electrode, behind which is usually placed a collector.
  • Alternating high frequency voltages are applied to the deflecting electrodes to cause the electron beam to be de-' flected across the aperture to thus control the instantaneous flow of electron current to the collector, which may be used as an output electrode.
  • the deflecting sensitivity drops off as the frequency at which the tube is operated is increased due to electron transit time effects. Efforts have been made to increase the deflection sensitivity or the transconductance of the tube but such efforts have not met'with a great deal of success.
  • Conventional tubes of this kind are also subject to the limitation that when operated at ultra high frequencies the input circuit tends to be of low' resonant impedance resulting in an excessive amount of power being required to drive the tube. This decreases the effective power gain of the tube when operated as an amplifier, Fundamental causes of low resonant impedance include, among other things, radiation and resistance losses due to high circulating current in electrodes and leads; Electron loading also results from the interaction of the electron stream and the circuits connected to the tube and electrodes and may cause undesired degenerative and regenerative effects caused by lead impedances common to more than one circuit.
  • a further object of my invention is to provide such a device in which undesired coupling due to common leads and ineffective shielding between circuits. is reduced to a minimum.
  • Another specific object of, my invention is to provide an electron discharge device of the beam deflection type, utilizing multiple additive deflection for providing a tube having high transconductance.
  • a still further object of my invention is to provide an electron discharge device of the beam deflection type utilizing additive multiple deflection and secondary emission amplification for.
  • a still further objector" my invention is to. provide an electron discharge device of the beam deflection type utilizing a novel type of combined electrode system and circuit useful at ultra high frequencies and having a high transconducta-nce.

  • Figure 7 is a schematic longitudinal section of the tube shown in Figure 3 made according to my invention and a diagram of its associated circuit.
  • an electron discharge device made according to my invention includes an evacuated envelope lil having the usual press H and base l2. Supported from this press is the indirectly heated cathode 13 provided with leads 13 which act as the cathode lead and heater leads. Mounted at the other end of the envelope is a collector l4 toward which the beam is directed through the intermediate electrodes positioned between the cathode and collector.
  • the deflecting electrode system Adjacent the cathode is the apertured beam forming and focusing electrode in the form of a disc 15 electrically connected to the lead I5.
  • the deflecting electrode system includes the tubular member [6 separated into compartments or chambers by means of the transverse conducting elements ll, I8 and I9 provided with the aligned apertures IT, IS and i9 through which the beam from the cathode is directed during operation of the electron discharge device.
  • the beam in passing through this deflecting electrode system passes through another apertured electrode 20 having the aperture 20 and connected to the lead and support 2!.
  • the electron multiplying system comprising electrodes 22, 23, 2Q, 25, 26 and screen 21.
  • the element 20 maintained at ground potential by being connected to electrode 25 causes the beam to be directed against the surface of the element 22 to cause the emission of secondary electrons when struck by the beam of primary electrons.
  • These electron multiplying electrodes may be coated with the usual material for inducing a high ratio of primary-to-secondary electrons.
  • the distance between the centers of these deflecting elements is equal to the distance traveled by an electron during a half period of the controlling voltage applied to these deflecting electrodes.
  • Thes elements preferably. have a dimension in the direction of travel of the electron beam equal approximately to the distance travelled by an electron during a half period or 7r radians.
  • the successive elements are cross connected so that the phase relationship between the electron beam and the voltage applied to the controlling electrode elements will cause additive deflection, that is deflection in the same direction.
  • the lines 35 and. 35 are connected to the signal input circuit as shown and to the voltage divider arrangement 33 through the resistance 3'! and 38 which cooperate with the shorting condenser 56.
  • This arrangement permits not only tuning of the lines 34 and 35 but provides the necessary direct voltages for applying the proper biasing or polarizing voltages to the deflecting electrodes to center the electron beam.
  • the proper positive voltage is applied to deflecting electrode system I6 by means of the conductor 3:3, and the voltage source for the multiplier elements is shown at 48, the voltages increasing in a positive direction from the apertured member 725 to the collector l4.
  • By-passing condensers, such as All provide paths for the radio frequency currents.
  • the output is taken between collector M and screen 21 across the circuit comprising the primary of transformer 42 and condenser 63, the proper biasing voltage on the collector being provided by means of con ductor 43, by-passing condenser 44 completing the radio frequency circuit and permitting different positive voltages to be applied to the member and the collector [6.
  • a beam of electrons is directed from the cathode i3 through the beam forming and electron lens system formed by elements i5 and elements ll and I8.
  • deflecting elements 35 By properly positioning deflecting elements 35 with respect to apertured elementl8 another electron lens can be provided between these elements to properly focus the beam on the aperture l9 of apertured element 59.
  • the beam may also be properly directed by applying the bias to the three deflecting elements, an odd number of elements being provided for this purpose.
  • the beam is deflected across aperture it when an input signal voltage or control voltage is applied through the conductors and 35.
  • the transit time of the electrons is so matched to the deflecting elementsthat any electrons which may have been deflected in an upward direction by deflecting electrodes 35 will arrive between elements 3! a half period later and again be deflected in the same direction,
  • the amount of deflection across apertured element I9 at any particular instant determines the amount of current flowing through the aperture so that the input voltage may be reproduced and the output much amplified because of the high transconductance of the tube.
  • This amplification is still further increased by means of the multiplier system positioned between the apertured member 2!] and collector 14, the output being taken between the collector l4 and screen 27 by means of the output circuit comprising transformer 52 and condenser 43. If it is desired to utilize the device as a converter it would be possible to do this by introducing both signal and local oscillator voltages on the input or Lecher wires 34 and 35.
  • Figure 3 is shown a modification of my invention in which the input circuit is self-contained and in which the input circuit is substantially completely shielded from the cathode electrode as well as the output electrode system.

Th length of these elongated slots varies as shown for the purpose of properly forming the beam.
  • the deflecting electrode system and input circuit are combined into a unitary structure which simplifies the construction and permits eiiective shielding of the input circuit and electrodes from the output electrode system.
  • the tubular member 56 is provided with the extensions 60 and BI and it is within these extensions that the combined deflecting electrode system and circuit are mounted and supported by means of glass bead supporting structures 63 and 63.
  • the deflecting electrode system comprises an elongated rectangularly shaped member of ribbon-like construction having intermediate its ends inwardly extending sections 64 provided with slots 85 for forming deflecting elements 64 between said slots.
  • the distance from the center line extending transversely of the slotted portion to an end of the rectangularly shaped member is equal to a quarter-wave of the received or controlling voltage, so that in effect each half acts like a Lecher wire system of quarter wave-length, the voltage peak likewise arriving between elements 32 to be again appearing between the inwardly extending portions -fi l in-which the deflecting electrode elements are positioned,
  • the voltage is fedto this circuit arrangementbymeans of leads 66 which may be connected to a transmission line system, for example, of the coaxial cable type.
  • the distance between centers of the elements 64 is equal to the distancethatan electron travels during one'periodof the applied controlling voltage or electrically to 25+ radians, the elements having awidth in the direction of travel of the electron beam substantially equal to a half-period or 1r radians.

It'will be observed that a wire or conductor 591 is positioned centrally of the aperture toprovide the double apertured efiect for obtainingthe desired output 1 characteristics.
  • the electron beam formed by cathode 52- and-focusing element 56 is directed through aperture 5?" between the beam directingelements 6?, upon which the bias may be properly adjusted to center the beam on aperture 58" and to direct it through the deflecting electrode system between'the pairs of successively positioned oppositely disposed beam deflecting elements Ed.
  • the electron beam passes between the elements it comes under the influence of each successive pair of elements forapproximately a half period at half-period intervals. Inasmuch as the voltage. during the half-period intervals passes through 180, deflection of the beam will be additiveo'r in the same direction, thus efiec tive transconductance is increased substantially in direct ratio to the number of successive pairs of deflecting elements.
  • the input circuit is combined with the deflecting elements to greatly simplify this strucrare; to make more efiective the deflection contrbL-and because of the shielding arrangement of the tubular member 56 and extensions 69 and G l the input circuit is well shielded from the output electrode system, so that little if any inter-' action results.
