ABSTRACT:
A thermionic emitter for providing positive ions has been described incorporating a mixture of beta-alumina and inert material such as charcoal positioned on a filament for heating the mixture. Alternately the invention may incorporate beta-alumina with inert material such as nickle deposited in selected areas. The invention overcomes the problem of generating positive ions with low power consumption.
