Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A device for deflecting an electron beam emitted from an electron gun in a cathode-ray tube, the device being of the type having a helical strip slow-wave structure, wherein the improvement resides in enlarging the passage of the electron beam toward the display screen of the cathode-ray tube with the characteristic impedance of the slow-wave structure maintained constant throughout the length of the slowwave structure.
  • This invention relates to an electron beam deflecting device for use with a cathode-ray tube for the display of waveforms and, more particularly, to an electron beam deflecting device of the type using a helical strip slowwave structure.
  • a deflecting device having parallel-plate electrodes is used in a cathode-ray tube for the direct observation of single-pulse waveforms with an ultra-high frequency and ultra-fast waveforms consisting of ultra-wide band frequency components. Degradation in deflection sensitivity and an inverted deflection of the electron beam is inverted during the electron transit time in the device of this type.
  • a deflecting device using a helical strip slow-wave structure is,,therefore, used in lieu of such conventional device so as to avoid these and other difficulties, providing a uniform deflection sensitivity over a range dc. to thousands of mega-hertz.
  • FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of an essential part of a travelling-wave deflection device implementing this invention ⁇
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic view showing an example of the applications of the device shown in FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 is a plot showing the characteristic impedance VSWR (voltage standing wave ratio) of the device illustrated in FIG. 1.
  • the electron beam deflecting device which is generally represented by reference numeral 10, comprises a helical strip slow-wave structure 11 having an internal bore 12 extending therethrough.
  • the slow-wave structure 10 is enclosed in a cylindrical outer conductor 13.
  • the slow-wave structure and the outer conductor are in coaxial relationship with each other and the electron beam advances in a direction througha passage defined between the two members, the direction of the electron beam being indicated by a broken line b.
  • the combination of the structure 11 andthe outer conductor 13 used as the electron beam deflecting device is know per se.
  • the helical strip slow-wave structure 11 is tapered forwardly on its side defining the passage of the electron beam.
  • the structure 11 is herein shown as tapered at an angle 0 which may be selected as desired.
  • the axis of the cylindrical outer conductor 13 should be inclined at an angle corresponding to one-half of the angle 0 in anopposite direction.
  • the center line of the passage of the electron beam is relatively deviated at an angle 0/2 as indicated by a broken line a.
  • the impedance and the phase characteristic of the helical strip slow-wave structure will be varied toward the outlet of the deflecting device failing to provide a uniform transmission characteristics throughout the length of the deflection device.
  • the bore 12 in the helical structure 11 may be forwardly reduced in diameter so that the reduction in the capacitance resulting from the tapering of the structure 11 is compensated for by decreasing the inductance.
  • FIG. 2 sketchily illustrates an example of applications of the electron beam deflecting device of FIG. 1 in a cathode-ray tube.
  • an electron beam is emitted from the electron gun 14 and deflected vertically when passing through the travelling-wave deflection device 10.
  • the thus deflected beam is further deflected horizontally by the horizontal deflector means 15 and the resultant optical information such as waveforms is displayed on a screen 16 as customary.
  • Designated by reference numeral 10a is an input plug of the travelling-wave deflection device 10.
  • the screen 16 can be scanned over an increased area because of the enlarged passage of the electron beam in the travelling-wave deflection device 10 without inviting a variation in characteristic impedance throughout the length of the device 10.
  • the characteristics impedance of the deflecting device according to the invention is maintained comparable to that attained in the conventional counterpart, as will be understood from observation of FIG. 3.
  • a device for deflecting an electron beam emitted in a direction from an electron gun which comprises:
  • a helical strip slow-wave structure having an axial bore extending therethrough and a predetermined radial thickness and positioned axially within said BEST AVAIL COPY direction at an angle corresponding to twice of the angle at which said outer conductor is inclined from said directiomand said bore being reduced in diameter in said direction.
