Electron gun cathode and manufacturing method therefor

摘要

An electron gun cathode and a manufacturing method therefor includes a unitary cylindrical sleeve having a bottom with through-holes for the passage of the terminals of a heater. The heater is disposed in a closed space formed by the sleeve and a base joined to the sleeve opposite its bottom. The heater is sealed in the closed space of the sleeve and base to promote thermal efficiency, reduce heat loss between the base and the sleeve, and reduce power consumption of the cathode.
