Vacuum tubes we still (have to) use: The traveling wave tube, Part 2
We live in a world of solid-state active devices that have made most vacuum tubes obsolete, but a few types remain as they are still indispensable. The previous part of this article introduced the traveling wave tube and its basic operation, along with some attributes. This part delves into some related issues. Q: What’s the […]
Vacuum tubes we still (have to) use: The photomultiplier tube, Part 2
We live in a world of solid-state active devices that have made most vacuum tubes obsolete, but a few types remain as they are still indispensable. Part 1 of this article explained the basics of the photomultiplier tube. This part looks into other PMT characteristics. Q: Are there solid-state functional equivalents to the PMT? A: […]
