Thermionic Emission (1)
When a metal is heated sufficiently, its free electrons gain enough kinetic energy to leave the metal. This process is called thermionic emission.
![Page 3: Electrons](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062720/56813592550346895d9d023b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Thermionic Emission (2)
In practice, thermionic emission is caused by heating a filament of metal wire with an electric current.

Thermionic Emission (3)
The work done on each electron from the filament isW = eV where V is the p.d. across the filament and the anode.
Electron-voltThe electron-volt is an amount of energy equal to the work done on an electron moved through a p.d. of 1V.

Properties of Electron Beams (Cathode rays)
Cathode rays travel in straight lines. Cathode rays can cause fluorescence. Cathode rays can be deflected by electric
field and magnetic field. Cathode rays may produce heat and X-rays. Cathode rays can affect photographic plates.

Deflection of Electrons in a Uniform Electric Field (1)
Consider an electron beam directed between two oppositely charged parallel plates as shown below.
With a constant potential difference between the two deflecting plates, the trace is curved towards the positive plate.

Deflection of Electrons in a Uniform Magnetic Field (1)
The force F acting on an electron in a uniform magnetic field is given by
BevF
Since the magnetic force F is at right angles to the velocity direction, the electron moves rounda circular path.

Thomson’s e/m Experiment (2)
A beam of electron is produced by an electron gun with an accelerating voltage V.
The electron beam is arranged to travel through an electric field and a magnetic field which are perpendicular to each other.
The apparatus is set-up so that an electron from the gun is undeflected.

Uses of CRO
An oscilloscope can be used as
1. an a.c. and d.c. voltmeter,
2. for time and frequency measurement,
3. as a display device.
![Page 20: Electrons](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062720/56813592550346895d9d023b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Lissajous’ Figures (1)
Lissajous’ figure can be displayed by applying two a.c. signals simultaneously to the X-plates and Y-plates of an oscilloscope.
As the frequency, amplitude and phase difference are altered, different patterns are seen on the screen of the CRO.
