| Steps necessary for production of high speed electrons |
a-hihg potential difference, kV applied across tube. 1-gives filament very high negative charge. 2-gives anode an equally high positive charge. b-high electric field causes space charge electrons to rush from cathode to anode at extremely high speeds |
