Reflex Tetrode with Unidirectional Ion Flow.

Abstract

Experimental results are reported which show that the backward directed (and unusable) ion current in a reflex triode can be almost completely suppressed by adding a second anode, made of aluminized mylar, 0.5 cm from the existing polyethylene anode. Proton generation efficiencies in excess of 50% have been obtained. (Author)
