Who performed an experiment with cathode ray tubes?

J. J. ThomsonJ. J. Thomson did the cathode ray experiment where he discovered the existence of electrons.


Which is better directly heated cathode or indirectly heated cathode?

A cathode to which heat is supplied by an independent heater element in a thermionic tube; this cathode has the same potential on its entire surface, whereas the potential along a directly heated filament varies from one end to the other. Also known as equipotential cathode; heater-type cathode; unipotential cathode.


How does a vacuum tube work?

contains only a heated electron-emitting cathode and an anode. Electrons can only flow in one direction through the device—from the cathode to the anode. Adding one or more control grids within the tube allows the current between the cathode and anode to be controlled by the voltage on the grids.[5]


What is a TRIODE and what are its uses?

A triode is a vacuum-tube (US) aka valve(UK) with three electrodes : an anode, a cathode and a grid. The cathode is heated electrically which boils off a cloud of electrons. The anode is made positive ( typ. 100-500V) which attracts the electrons towards it. The grid is an open structure, usually of thin wires, placed between the anode and cathode, but nearer the cathode. If a negative voltage is applied to the grid the current flow through the tube is reduced. The more negative, the less current. Prior to the development of transistors, tubes were used for all things in radio,TV and electronics. Different tubes had different numbers of electrodes; the triode was particularly suited to high power amplifiers, especially at radio frequencies. Triodes are still used today by shortwave radio stations, and for RF heating equipment.

No, there are some cold cathode vacuum tubes. These do not light.


Do LCD TVs use cathode ray tubes?

Some early flat screen TVs used cathode ray tubes, but the flat faced tubes were harder to make and heaver than the older curved faced tubes. When newer designs (e.g. plasma, LCD, LED) came out that naturally produced flat screens and were lighter weight than cathode ray tubes, they rapidly made flat screen cathode ray tube TVs obsolete.


How do scientists detect cathode rays?

Cathode rays are found in vacuum tubes. Scientists are able to view them when they are a negative cathode because they emit a light and can glow.


In the late 1800s experiments using cathode ray tubes led to the discovery of the electrons?

Yes, experiments with cathode ray tubes in the late 1800s, particularly by scientists like J.J. Thomson, led to the discovery of electrons. Thomson's experiments demonstrated that cathode rays were composed of negatively charged particles, which were later named electrons. This discovery laid the foundation for modern atomic theory.


Does a cathode ray tube resemble the tubes used in transistor radios?
