COLD EMISSION ELECTRON DISCHARGE DEVICE Filed March 15, 1965 III IIIIIIIIIIT FIG. 1 FIG. 2
INVENTOR Z Danie/ (b ARIES By 1E533;
United States Patent Ofifice 3,303,330 Patented Mar. 7, 1967 12 Claims. (c1. 313 s) The present invention relates to triodes with cold cathodes by field emission.
It is known that the cold cathodes by field emission operate with high voltages of the order of several kilo volts or several tens of kilovolts, and that, within this range of voltages, the current modulation is very difiicult if the triode comprises a grid and an anode of conventional construction.
The object of the present invention is a triode with cold cathode by field emission in which the modulation is, in contrast thereto, simple and easy.
According to the present invention, the fast electrons issued from a cold cathode by field emission bombard a target with induced conductivity which supports the grid and the anode in the form of metallizations on the insulating face thereof.
It is known that targets with induced conductivity, usually utilized in storage tubes, comprise a metallic layer in contact with an insulating layer made of a dielectric such as zinc sulphide, having the property of becoming momentarily conductive when rapid electrons penetrate into the insulating layer. This target is bombarded on the metallic side thereof by rapid electrons which traverse the metallic layer and penetrate into the insulating layer which they traverse to a greater or lesser extent. Along the paths thereof within the insulating material, these electrons liberate a quantity of secondary electrons in such a manner that the insulation becomes momentarily conductive which constitutes the phenomenon of induced conductivity. The number of secondary electrons liberated within the insulating layer by each primary electron is called coefficient of multiplication of the target. These secondary electrons may be removed, for example, by a metallization carried at a positive potential applied on the insulating face of the target.
It has already been proposed in my copending application filed on March 3, 1963, under Serial No. 263,277, now Patent No. 3,240,988 and entitled Storage Tube to utilize, particularly in analyser storage tubes, a target with induced conductivity supporting on the insulating face thereof a grid operating as control of the coefficient of multiplication of the target. In the present invention, however, a target with induced conductivity is utilized supporting on the insulating face thereof two metallizations, of which one, carried at a positive potential, serves to remove the secondary electrons by causing the same to fiow off and functions as anode of the triode, and the other, carried at an adjustable or controllable potential, serves to cause the coefficient of multiplication of the target to vary and functions as control grid of the triode.
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a cold cathode electron discharge device which eliminates, by simple and effective means, the aforementioned shortcomings noted hereinabove that are normally encountered in analogous prior art devices.
It is another object of the present invention to provide an electron discharge device provided with a cold cathode operating by field emission which permits, by simple means, of controlling the amplitude of the output current thereof.
Still another object of the present invention resides in the provision of an electron discharge device of the cold cathode type operating by means of field emission with relatively high voltages which permits modulation of the output current with relatively low voltages notwithstanding the high voltages utilized -in producing the electron emission from the cold cathode, and which solves the problems of insulation within the tube in a completely satisfactory manner without unduly complicated and expensive structures.
Still a further object of the present invention resides in the provision of an electron discharge device provided with a cold cathode operating by fieldemission in which the anode and control grid are constituted by auxiliary elements adjoined to a target having induced conductivity so as to eliminate any problems resulting from the use of the high voltages necessary to produce electron emission from the cold cathode.
These and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more obvious from the following description when taken in connection with the accompanying drawing which shows, for purposes of illustration only, one embodiment in accordance with the present invention and wherein:
FIGURE 1 is a longitudinal cross sectional view through a triodetype electron discharge device in accordance with the present invention, and
FIGURE 2 is a transverse cross sectional view, taken along line 2-2 of FIGURE 1, of the target with induced conductivity utilized in the electron discharge device of FIGURE 1.
Referring now to the drawing wherein like reference numerals are used throughout the two views to designate therein like parts, the triode illustrated in FIGURE 1 comprises an evacuated enclosure, delimited by rings 1 and 2 made, for example, of ceramic material, a cover 3 also made of ceramic and a metallic bottom or base 4. On the bottom 4 is placed an array of small points 5, for example, of tungsten or zirconium carbide, constituting the cold cathode by field emission, which is carried by means of source 6 at a high negative potential, for example, l0 kv. to 30 kv., with respect to ground. A mounting 7, extending to the outside between the rings 1 and 2, supports thereon a target with induced conductivity, realized as usual by vaporizing on a very fine grid 8, serving as support, a very thin layer, for example, of 0.5 to 2 microns, of dielectric 9 such as zinc sulphide, imparting to the target a high coefiicient of multiplication, and by subsequently metallizing the insulating surface on the side of the grid 8 with a layer 10, for example, of aluminum of a thickness of about 0.03 to 0.1 micron.
According to the present invention, there are disposed on the insulating face of the target opposite the metallization 10, for example, by vaporization in vacuum, two metallizations 11 and 12, for example, in the form of an interdigital comb-type structure (FIGURE 2) of which one serves as grid and the other as anode of the triode. The grid 11 has a connection 13 passing through the cover 3 and its connection 13 receives the input signal across the capacitor 14 at the terminals of a biasing resistance 15. The anode 12 also has a connection 16 passing through the cover 3, and its connection 16, which is carried at a positive potential by means of source 17 uncoupled by the capacitor 18 across a charging resistance 19, supplies the output signal across the capacitor 20.
Operation The tube described hereinabove operates as follows:
The rapid electrons, extracted by field emission from the points 5 upon application of the high voltage from source 6, traverse the metallization 10, and thereupon penetrate into the insulating layer 9 where they liberate along their paths secondary electrons which fiow 0E through the anode 12 and form a direct current in the charging resistance 19. Nevertheless, the quantity of secondary electrons liberated is controlled by the potential applied to the grid 11, and the variations of this potential under the effect of the input signal introduces in the output current of these electrons a modulation which appears as an amplified output signal transmitted through the capacitor 20. Thus, one can readily find again in the structure described hereinabove the operation of a conventional triode with its ease of modulation, while preserving at the same time the advantages inherent in the cold cathodes.
While I have shown and described one embodiment in accordance with the present invention, it is obvious that the same is not limited thereto but is susceptible of numerous changes and modifications within the spirit and scope thereof, and I therefore do not wish to be limited to the details shown and described herein but intend to cover all such changes and modifications as are encompassed by the scope of the appended claims.
