First Embodiment


FIGS. 1A to 1D are schematic views illustrating an electron-emitting electrode according to a first embodiment.



FIG. 1A is a side view. FIG. 1B is a perspective view in which a portion 10A of FIG. 1A is extracted. FIG. 1C is a cross-sectional view of one example of the electron-emitting electrode. FIG. 1D is a cross-sectional view of another example of the electron-emitting electrode.


As shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, the electron-emitting electrode 110 according to the embodiment includes a first member 10, a first diamond member 21, and a second diamond member 22.


In the example as shown in FIG. 1A, the first member 10 is spiral-shaped. The first member 10 is, for example, a filament. The first member 10 includes, for example, tungsten. The first member 10 may include, for example, tungsten and at least one selected from the group consisting of thorium oxide and cerium oxide. The tungsten concentration in the first member 10 is, for example, not less than 90%. The melting points of these materials are high. For example, any material that has a melting point that is not less than 1200° C. may be used as the first member 10. The first member 10 is, for example, conductive.


As shown in FIGS. 1B to 1D, a surface 10F of the first member 10 includes a first region 11 and a second region 12. In the example as shown in FIG. 1B, the first region 11 and the second region 12 are along a direction Dx1 in which the first member 10 extends.


The first diamond member 21 is located at the first region 11. The first diamond member 21 includes diamond and a first element. The first element includes at least one selected from the group consisting of nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, and bismuth. For example, the first diamond member 21 is of an n-type.


The second diamond member 22 is located at the second region 12. The second diamond member 22 includes diamond and a second element. The second element includes at least one selected from the group consisting of boron, aluminum, gallium, and indium. For example, the second diamond member 22 is of a p-type.


As shown in FIG. 1A, the electron-emitting electrode 110 may include a first electrode terminal T1 and a second electrode terminal T2. The first electrode terminal T1 is electrically connected with a first end portion 10e of the first member 10. The second electrode terminal T2 is electrically connected with a first other-end portion 10f of the first member 10. The temperature of the first member 10 is increased by supplying a current to these terminals. Electrons are emitted from the first and second diamond members 21 and 22 as the temperature of the first member 10 increases.


For example, thermions are emitted from the first diamond member 21. For example, primary electrons are emitted from the first diamond member 21. For example, secondary electrons are emitted from the second diamond member 22. For example, the electron-emitting electrode 110 is applicable as the cathode of a magnetron, etc. In such a case, for example, the electrons that are emitted from the first diamond member 21 are incident on the second diamond member 22. Thereby, secondary electrons are emitted from the second diamond member 22.


For example, conductive diamond has negative electron affinity. The conduction band level of such a material is higher than the vacuum level. Electrons are easily emitted from such a material. Electrons are easily emitted by the cathode that includes conductive diamond even when the temperature of the first member 10 is low. For example, n-type diamond is used as the conductive diamond that emits the primary electrons.


For example, when the electron-emitting electrode 110 is used as the cathode of a magnetron, etc., a portion of the thermions that are emitted has cyclotron motion and strikes the cathode due to a reverse impact phenomenon. The cathode can efficiently emit secondary electrons by including a material that has a high emission efficiency of secondary electrons. Conductive diamond can be used as the material that emits secondary electrons. For example, p-type diamond is used as the material that emits secondary electrons.


According to the embodiment, the electron emission of the second diamond member 22 can be utilized in addition to the emission of the electrons from the first diamond member 21. A highly efficient electron emission is obtained thereby. According to the embodiment, an electron-emitting electrode is provided in which the efficiency can be increased.


For example, a reference example may be considered in which a metal oxide or the like is provided instead of p-type diamond. The emission efficiency of secondary electrons of the reference example is low. According to the embodiment, secondary electrons can be emitted with high efficiency by providing the p-type second diamond member 22.


As shown in FIGS. 1C and 1D, the first diamond member 21 and the second diamond member 22 are separated from each other.


The surface of one of the first diamond member 21 or the second diamond member 22 may include a surface asperity. For example, the surface asperity of these members may be caused by the diamond crystal grains.


For example, the second diamond member 22 may include an uneven configuration (including a protruding shape) having a depth that is not more than 50 μm. Secondary electrons are easily emitted by the uneven configuration.


As shown in FIGS. 1C and 1D, the height of the first diamond member 21 referenced to the first region 11 (the surface 10F of the first member 10) is taken as a first height H1. For example, the first height H1 corresponds to the thickness of the first diamond member 21. The height of the second diamond member 22 referenced to the second region 12 (the surface 10F of the first member 10) is taken as a second height H2. For example, the second height H2 corresponds to the thickness of the second diamond member 22. According to the embodiment, it is favorable for the second height H2 to be greater than the first height H1. The surface area of the surface of the second diamond member 22 is substantially increased thereby. Thereby, for example, the incidence of the electrons on the second diamond member 22 and the emission of the electrons from the second diamond member 22 are more efficient. A higher efficiency is obtained.


According to the embodiment, the second height H2 is not less than 1.5 times and not more than 10 times the first height H1. For example, the second height H2 is not more than 5 μm. Thereby, the emission of the electrons from the second diamond member 22 is easier.


As shown in FIG. 1C, the top of the second diamond member 22 may be conic. The top of the second diamond member 22 may be planar.


According to the embodiment, it is favorable for the ratio of the surface area of the second region 12 to the surface area of the first region 11 to be not more than 0.1. For example, the surface area of the first region 11 is not less than 10 times the surface area of the second region 12. For example, the surface area of the first diamond member 21 is not less than 10 times the surface area of the second diamond member 22. Thereby, a high amount of primary electrons is emitted from the first diamond member 21. A high amount of primary electrons increases the amount of the electrons incident on the second diamond member 22. As a result, a high amount of secondary electrons is emitted from the second diamond member 22.


In the example as shown in FIG. 1B, the second diamond member 22 extends along the direction Dx1 in which the first member 10 extends. In the example, the first region 11 is located along a portion of the circumference having the direction Dx1 in which the first member 10 extends as the center; and the second region 12 is located at the other portion of the circumference.


According to the embodiment, the surface 10F of the first member 10 may include multiple first regions 11. For example, multiple first diamond members 21 may be provided. The second region 12 may be located between one of the multiple first regions 11 and another one of the multiple first regions 11. For example, one of the multiple first diamond members 21 is located at the one of the multiple first regions 11. Another one of the multiple first diamond members 21 is located at the other one of the multiple first regions 11. For example, the ratio of the surface area of the second region 12 to the sum of the surface areas of the multiple first regions 11 is not more than 0.1. For example, the ratio of the surface area of the second diamond member 22 to the sum of the surface areas of the multiple first diamond members 21 is not more than 0.1.


According to the embodiment, the surface 10F of the first member 10 may include multiple second regions 12. For example, multiple second diamond members 22 may be provided. For example, the one of the multiple first regions 11 may be between one of the multiple second regions 12 and another one of the multiple second regions 12. One of the multiple second diamond members 22 is located at the one of the multiple second regions 12. Another one of the multiple second diamond members 22 is located at the other one of the multiple second regions 12. For example, the ratio of the sum of the surface areas of the multiple second regions 12 to the sum of the surface areas of the multiple first regions 11 is not more than 0.1. For example, the ratio of the sum of the surface areas of the multiple second diamond members 22 to the sum of the surface areas of the multiple first diamond members 21 is not more than 0.1.



FIGS. 2A and 2B are schematic cross-sectional views illustrating the electron-emitting electrode according to the first embodiment.


As shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the first diamond member 21 includes a first polycrystal 21c. The first diamond member 21 may include a first hydrogen region 21f. The first hydrogen region 21f is located at the surface of the first polycrystal 21c. The first hydrogen region 21f includes hydrogen. The first hydrogen region 21f is, for example, a hydrogen termination region.


As shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the second diamond member 22 includes a second polycrystal 22c. The second diamond member 22 may include a second hydrogen region 22f. The second hydrogen region 22f is located at the surface of the second polycrystal 22c. The second hydrogen region 22f includes hydrogen. The second hydrogen region 22f is, for example, a hydrogen termination region.


For example, a homogeneous diamond member is easily obtained by the diamond member including a polycrystal. For example, an efficient electron emission is stably and easily obtained by the diamond member including a hydrogen region.



FIGS. 3A to 3C are schematic perspective views illustrating a portion of the electron-emitting electrode according to the first embodiment.


These drawings illustrate the first polycrystal 21c or the second polycrystal 22c.


In the example of FIG. 3A, at least one of the first polycrystal 21c or the second polycrystal 22c includes a (100) plane and a (111) plane. The proportion of the (111) plane is greater than the proportion of the (100) plane.


In the example of FIG. 3B as well, at least one of the first polycrystal 21c or the second polycrystal 22c includes the (100) plane and the (111) plane. In the example of FIG. 3B, the proportion of the (111) plane is even greater than the proportion of the (100) plane.


In the example of FIG. 3C as well, at least one of the first polycrystal 21c or the second polycrystal 22c includes the (111) plane. The (100) plane is substantially not provided.


For example, the emission of the secondary electrons from the second diamond member 22 is more efficiently performed by increasing the proportion of the (111) plane.


For example, the second polycrystal 22c includes the (111) plane. The second polycrystal 22c does not include the (100) plane. Or, the proportion of the (100) plane in the second polycrystal 22c is less than the proportion of the (111) plane in the second polycrystal 22c. A highly efficient electron emission is easily obtained thereby.

For example, a current is supplied between the second end portion 15e and the second other-end portion 15f via the first electrode terminal T1 and the second electrode terminal T2. The second member 15 is heated by the current. The temperature of the first member 10 is increased by the heated second member 15.
