Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent oxidation of a metal foil of a sealing part due to high temperature by sealing airtight a conductor connected to the metal foil sealed in the sealing part of an emission tube with a thin tube connected to the sealing part, by guiding out a lead through the metal foil connected to the conductor, and by evacuating the inside of the thin tube. CONSTITUTION:A pair of electrodes 2a, 2b are provided in a quartz emission tube 1, and ScI, NaI, CsI, quick silver, and argon gas, etc., are sealed therein. Sealing parts 3a, 3b are provided on both ends of the emission tube 1, and Mo foils 4a, 4b are sealed therein, while conductors 5a, 5b connected to the foils 4a, 4b are guided to the outside. Quartz thin tubes 6a, 6b are sealed airtight in the sealing parts 3a, 3b, and the conductors 5a, 5b are inserted therein. Leads 8a, 8b are connected to the ends of the conductors 5a, 5b through the Mo foils 7a, 7b. The inside of the thin tubes 6a, 6b are evacuated. When the Mo foils 4a, 4b in the sealing parts 3a, 3b are exposed to high temperature, they are not oxidated.
