ABSTRACT:
A substrate bearing a secondary-emissive layer which consists of a cermet consisting of a readily evaporable metal, for example Au, Ag, Cu, Ni, Cr, Al or a nickel-chromium alloy, and an alkali metal aluminium fluoride, for example cryolite. The substrate material may be, for example mild steel, or a synthetic plastics material. It is possible to make large dynodes when using mild steel substrates which are much cheaper than silver-magnesium or beryllium-copper and the secondary-emissive layer does not require an activation treatment when incorporated in an electric discharge tube.
