Generating Electron Beam: Tips & Explanations

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion centers on the generation of electron beams, specifically seeking information about electron sources and the types of electron guns available. Participants express a desire for simplified explanations rather than comprehensive details.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Technical explanation, Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant requests information on how to generate electron beams and the types of electron sources available.
  • Another participant suggests using Google for research, implying that there are many resources available online.
  • Several participants mention Wikipedia as a potential source, specifically referencing topics like "Electron gun" and "Cathode ray tube."
  • A participant expresses frustration at not finding concise scientific explanations about the tools used for electron generation, despite having looked at suggested sources.
  • One participant recommends looking into the photoelectric effect and thermionic emission as relevant concepts.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not reach a consensus on the best sources for information, with some suggesting online resources while others express dissatisfaction with the available explanations.

Contextual Notes

Participants have not specified the exact types of electron guns they are interested in, nor have they clarified the specific scientific principles they wish to explore in detail.

hello every body

Can anyone help me for searching about this topic,

How to generate electron beam?

I want few information about electron source, in a simple explanation,
and namely, not complete explanation .
please help me.

thanks.

yes, I did.

I want to know the order of tools for electron generation and source, I have not found something in brief,

I mean about he verity at electron guns? how many kind of electron gun we have?

Did you check Wikipedia?
Electron gun
Cathode ray tube
thank you so much,
yes I studied them first , but there is no good explanations about the tools we use for generation of electron beam, I mean scientific answers about electron generation .

Look up photoelectric effect and thermionic emission.
