A Maltese-cross tube is used to show the first two
properties of cathode rays.
Properties:
1. electrons moving at high
speeds in straight lines
2. cause fluorescent
material to emit light
3. deflected by magnetic field
4. deflected by electric field

Maltese-cross Tube
“Maltese Cross” Crookes Tube
Invented in the 1880s by
William Crookes during his
investigations into the nature of
cathode rays.

The direction of
deflection of cathode
rays by magnetic field
is found with Fleming’s

Cathode Ray Tube
The oscilloscope is capable of following changes
that occur within billionths of a second.
It is widely used throughout industry and in
laboratories to test and adjust electronic equipment,
and to follow rapid oscillations in electric voltages.

Cathode Ray Oscilloscope
The Cathode Ray Oscilloscope (C.R.O.) is divided into 3 parts:

• Deflection system
• Fluorescent screen

Cathode Ray Oscilloscope
Electron gun:
• The cathode emits electrons when heated
• The grid controls the number of electrons reaching anodes – control
with brightness knob
• The anode focus electrons into fine beam – control with focus knob
• The potential difference between anode and cathode accelerates
electrons to high velocity
Deflection system:
• Y-plates: electric field deflects electrons vertically
• X-plates: electric field deflects electrons horizontally
Fluorescent screen:
• When fast electrons hit fluorescent screen, their kinetic energy is
converted into light – a spot of light is seen on the screen
• The walls of C.R.O. after anode is coated with graphite and
grounded to keep out external electric field
Kinetic energy of electrons emerging from anode = eV

Uses of C.R.O.
1. Measure potential difference
• Switch off time-base
• Connect voltage to be measured to Y-input
• d.c. voltage: if x = deflection of light spot, voltage = xn volts
• a.c. voltage: 2 x (peak voltage, V0) = ln

2. Measure short time interval
• Switch on time-base; one horizontal division = time interval, T
• Pulse A represents sound detected by microphone
• Pulse B represents the echo
• Say, time interval between A and B is 3 divisions = 3T
• If d = distance of wall from microphone

3. Display waveform
• Connect input voltage to Y-input
• Switch on time-base
• Adjust frequency to a steady trace formed on screen
• The trace or waveform is the graph of voltage V against time t

Semiconductor diodes

Semiconductors have resistance between that of metals and
insulators; e.g. carbons, germanium, silicon
Pure semiconductor:
negative charge carriers = positive charge carriers
or
free electrons = holes

Doped semiconductor (with added impurity):
n-type: free electrons > holes
(impurity of valency 5; arsenic or phosphorus)
p-type: holes > free electrons
(impurity of valency 3, indium or gallium)

Transistor as a current amplifier
The base current Ib controls the collector current Ic
Ic is many times larger than Ib.
When Ib = 0, Ic = 0
< Back

When Ib changed, it is amplified by the transistor,
producing larger change in Ic.

Transistor as a switch
The transistor can be used as a switch to switch on a lamp, L.
The light-dependent resistor (LDR) has resistance of 2 kΩ in bright
light and 20 kΩ in the dark.
During the day, resistance R1 is much less than resistance R2. So the
potential difference across LDR is much smaller than across R2.
< Back
Next >
The base current Ib is small, the collector current Ic is small, and the
relay is not activated. The lamp L is off.
The reverse happens when in the dark. R1 increases to maximum,
potential difference across LDR increases, and Ib increases.
The transistor amplifies the increase
resulting in large Ic, thus activating
relay and lamp L is switched on.

CashPlants
Other devices may be used in place
of LDR for other functions.
