Cylindrical
Focus Tube


|
10” (25 cms) long. 1.5” (37 mms)
diameter. Aluminium rod anode. Concave aluminium
cathode. Thin platinum anti-cathode target deformed by
the intense heat generated by the impact of the electron beam. Looped platinum wire external connections. Glass discoloration on the anode side of the
tube due to long use. Undated. Unknown make. But the thin
square-shaped and the thin bare platinum target make me believe it should be
a contemporary of the In later tubes the thin platinum target is
round in shape and embedded in a metal support. |
