Vaccum tubes were replaced by what?

Vacuum tubes were largely replaced by transistors. Transistors are smaller, more reliable, and generate less heat compared to vacuum tubes. This transition led to the development of smaller and more efficient electronic devices.


Who invented the vacuum tubes and when?

Vacuum tubes were invented by Thomas Edison in the 1880s. However, it was later improved by Lee De Forest in the early 20th century, who added a grid electrode and introduced the concept of the triode vacuum tube.


What branch of electricity deals with the behavior and motion of electrons in a vacuum or special materials?

Vacuum electronics is the branch of electricity that deals with the behavior and motion of electrons in a vacuum or special materials, typically focusing on applications like vacuum tubes, cathode ray tubes, and traveling wave tubes. The study of electron behavior in these conditions is important for various high-power and high-frequency electronic applications.


Is vacuum tube ohmic or non-ohmic and why?

Vacuum tubes are non-ohmic devices because their resistance changes with voltage and current. This non-linearity in resistance is due to the nature of the electron flow within the vacuum tube, causing it to exhibit non-ohmic behavior.


Do vacuum tubes did it lead to an increase or decrease in size?

Vacuum tubes initially led to an increase in size of electronic devices due to their bulky nature and need for additional components. However, as technology advanced, the development of smaller, more efficient components such as transistors and integrated circuits led to a decrease in size of electronic devices.
