cathode ray

listen to the pronunciation of cathode ray
English - English
Stream of electrons leaving the negative electrode, or cathode, in an evacuated or gas-filled discharge tube or emitted by a heated filament in certain electron tubes. Cathode rays cause fluorescent materials to luminesce and are utilized in cathode-ray oscilloscopes and television tubes (see cathode-ray tube)
– historically electrons emanating from the negative electrode (cathode) and striking the positive electrode (anode) in a vacuum tube
A negatively charged beam that emanates from the cathode of a discharge tube Cathode rays are streams of electrons
A beam of electrons emitted from the cathode in a partially evacuated tube
Oscilloscope: an instrument with a screen that provides a visual indication of the voltage wave form at any point in a circuit
a beam of electrons emitted by the cathode of an electrical discharge tube
stream of particles (electrons) emanating from the negative electrode in an evacuated glass tube
The mysterious ray that emanated from the cathode in a vacuum tube; shown by Thomson to be a stream of particles smaller than atoms
cathode ray tube
vacuum tube which displays images when an electron beam falls on a phosphorescent surface (this technology is commonly used in computer monitors and televisions)
cathode ray tube
a piece of equipment used in televisions and computers, in which electrons from the cathode produce an image on a screen
cathode-ray tube
a vacuum tube in which electrons from a heated cathode are focused and deflected onto a phosphorescent screen; used in television sets etc
cathode-ray tube
a vacuum tube in which a hot cathode emits a beam of electrons that pass through a high voltage anode and are focused or deflected before hitting a phosphorescent screen
cathode-ray tube
A cathode-ray tube is a device in televisions and computer terminals which sends an image onto the screen. Vacuum tube that produces images when its phosphorescent surface is struck by electron beams. CRTs can be monochrome (using one electron gun) or colour (typically using three electron guns to produce red, green, and blue images that, when combined, render a multicolour image). They come in a variety of display modes, including CGA (Color Graphics Adapter), VGA (Video Graphics Array), XGA (Extended Graphics Array), and the high-definition SVGA (Super Video Graphics Array)
