  • Abstract
    The probable causes of the development of stable bombarding potentials on the glass envelope of an oxide-cathode pentode are analysed and subjected to experiment. A photo-electric effect is examined in some detail and shown to give rise to dangerous potentials under certain conditions which may be of interest to electronic switching engineers.
