1894 results about "Plate electrode" patented technology

A plate, usually called anode in Britain, is a type of electrode that forms part of a vacuum tube. It is usually made of sheet metal, connected to a wire which passes through the glass envelope of the tube to a terminal in the base of the tube, where it is connected to the external circuit. The plate is given a positive potential, and its function is to attract and capture the electrons emitted by the cathode. Although it is sometimes a flat plate, it is more often in the shape of a cylinder or flat open-ended box surrounding the other electrodes.

Shower plate electrode for plasma CVD reactor

Methods and apparatuses for plasma chemical vapor deposition (CVD). In particular, a plasma CVD apparatus having a cleaning function, has an improved shower plate with holes having a uniform cross-sectional area to yield a high cleaning rate. The shower plate may serve as an electrode, and may have an electrically conductive extension connected to a power source. The shower plate, through which both cleaning gases and reaction source gases flow, may include a hole machined surface area with a size different than conventionally used to ensure a good film thickness uniformity during a deposition process. The size of the hole machined surface area may vary based on the size of a substrate to be processed, or the size of the entire surface of the shower plate.

Dielectric coupled CO2 slab laser

An slab CO2 laser includes spaced-apart elongated slab electrodes. A lasing gas fills a discharge gap between the electrodes. An RF power supply is connected across the electrodes and sustains an electrical discharge in the lasing gas in the discharge gap. Either one or two ceramic inserts occupy a portion of width of the electrodes and in contact with the electrodes. A discharge gap is formed between the portions of the width of the electrodes not occupied by the insert or inserts. Provision of the ceramic insert or inserts increases the resistance-capacitance (RC) time constant of the electrode impedance by increasing the capacitive component of the time constant. This hinders the formation of arcs in the discharge, which, in turn enables the inventive laser to operate with higher excitation power or higher lasing-gas pressure than would be possible without the dielectric insert. The ceramic insert also decreases the difference in impedance of the electrodes with and without a discharge. This leads to a better-behaved discharge, and a discharge that is easier to light.
