- an ultra-high power krystron with a continuous wave output of 1 MW and a pulse output of 150 MW with an efficiency of 50% to 70% has been developed. Used for Since Krystron can generate high power with high efficiency, it is expected to be widely used especially in the field of high power.
- the traveling-wave tube was invented in 1943 and completed. There are many types of traveling-wave tubes, such as spiral, cavity-coupled, cross-finger, and ladder, depending on the type of slow-wave circuit used. Spiral traveling-wave tubes have a wide band and have been widely used as transmission tubes for airplanes and artificial satellites, including microwave relay circuits. Cavity-coupled traveling-wave tubes were developed to supplement the power capacity of the helix, and were mainly put to practical use as transmitter tubes for satellite earth stations. The efficiency of a traveling-wave tube is usually several to 20%, but by using a potential-reducing collector, 50% of them have been developed, such as traveling wave tubes for onboard satellites. And the gyrotron.
- this is an electron tube based on the principle of the operation of a cyclone maser, and is used as a high-frequency, high-power source that generates high-power millimeter waves in the range of several 10 to 100 GHz. .
- the impregnated cathode can provide a higher emission current density than the oxide cathode
- the impregnated cathodes such as the cathode ray tubes, traveling wave tubes, klystrons, and gyrotrons described above have been used. It has been used for electron tubes. In the field of color picture tubes, the use of impregnated cathodes has been limited to special applications such as HD-TV tubes and ED-TV tubes. It has been expanded to.

Therefore, the coating of the electron emitting surface with the electron emitting material is performed faster and more uniformly, and a sufficient supply of the electron emitting material and a sufficient coverage of the electron emitting surface can be achieved. When the coverage is improved, more excellent ion impact resistance is obtained. Further, in this way, the aging time of the impregnated cathode assembly for high voltage operation can be shortened.

In such a case, the density tends to be high, and the intended porosity tends not to be obtained.
- the particle size is 2 m or more, the diffusion distance of the electron emitting material becomes large, so that it takes time to sufficiently supply the electron emitting material to the electron emitting surface. Furthermore, as the diffusion distance increases, it becomes difficult to obtain uniform diffusion on the electron emission surface. From these facts, it can be seen that when the particle size is 2.0 m or more, the coverage of the electron emitting surface by the electron emitting material tends to decrease. As described above, when the coverage is reduced, sufficient ion impact resistance cannot be obtained.
- the more preferable average particle size in the small particle size and high porosity region of the porous cathode substrate is 0.8 to 1.5 ⁇ m.

As a result, emission becomes possible and sufficient low-temperature operation becomes possible. In addition, since the low-temperature operation can be performed, the amount of evaporation of the electron-emitting substance, for example, a barrier, can be reduced, so that the thickness of the cathode assembly can be set smaller than before.
