I am wondering about the enthalpies of solids and liquids near the melting temperature. I am familiar with free energy, and I know that above Tm, free energy of the solid becomes higher than liquid. However, we have been asked to think about the same question for enthalpy and draw a schematic. I...

Can someone please explain to me the difference between a cathode ray tube and a magnetron? I just started using a magnetron for sputter deposition in a project for a prof, and after reading about it, it seems to be the same. Just wondering, even though it may be a stupid question! Thanks!
