A QUANTITATIVE STUDY OF THE EVOLUTION OF GASES FROM ELECTRON TUBES AND MATERIALS.
Abstract
A continuous quantitative and qualitative gas analysis system has been designed, built and calibrated. The system incorporates an omegatron mass spectrometer, ion pumps, ionization gauges and precision orifices to measure the flow rate of individual gases. It has been used to examine several processing and materials parameters as they affect the kinds and quantities of gases evolved by electron tubes. CO2, CO, and H2 in roughly equal amounts comprise about 95% of the gas evolved during cathode conversion and activation. Additional experiments in the dynamic analysis of tube processes are suggested. (Author)
