electron gun

• Eine Vorrichtung, die einen Elektronenstrahl erzeugt, meist in Elektronenstrahlröhren, Elektronenmikroskopen und anderer wissenschaftlicher oder technischer Ausrüstung zur Bilderzeugung oder Teilchensteuerung.

A device that emits a stream of electrons, typically used in cathode-ray tubes, electron microscopes, and other scientific or technical equipment to produce images or manipulate particles.

1. Device in cathode ray tubesC1formal

   A device that emits a stream of electrons, typically used in cathode ray tubes (CRTs) to produce images on a screen.

   Elektronenkanone

   • The electron gun in the old television directed electrons toward the phosphor screen.
   • Engineers designed a more efficient electron gun for the new oscilloscope.
   • The electron gun's filament must be heated to release electrons.

2. Component in particle acceleratorsC2formal

   A component that generates and accelerates a beam of electrons for use in scientific research or industrial applications.

   Komponente in Teilchenbeschleunigern

   • The electron gun in the particle accelerator produced a high-energy beam.
   • Scientists used an electron gun to study the properties of materials.
   • The electron gun's voltage was adjusted to control the beam's intensity.
