TEXT

1. A diode is a two-element electron tube that consists
of a cathode and an anode or plate acting as an electron col­
lector. By applying a positive voltage to the plate of a diode,
an electric field is established between cathode and plate
that attracts electrons emitted from the cathode to the plate.

2. Plate current is the flow of electrons from cathode to
the plate and their return to the cathode through the external
circuit. Plate current flows in a diode when the plate is made
positive with respect to the cathode. No current flows when
the plate is negative with respect to the cathode. This is
called unidirectional conduction.

3. The cloud of electrons formed in the space between ca­
thode and the plate is called space charge. The space charge
is negative and hence has a repelling effect on electrons emit­
ted from the cathode. The amount of the plate current de­
pends on the space charge and the relative strength of the
electric field set up (создаваемого) by the positive plate
voltage.

4. At low plate voltages the negative space charge limits
the flow of electrons and the plate current is completely con­
trolled by the plate voltage and is independent of cathode
temperature. The plate current is space-charge limited. At
high plate voltages the space charge is drawn off (исчезает)
and the plate current reaches saturation at a value equal to
the total emission current. It is then independent of the
plate voltage and is said to be emission-limited for a specific
cathode temperature. As the diode tube permits the flow of

current in one direction only it is often used as a rectifier to change alternating current to direct current.
