Mic Kaczmarczik's TubeInformation - The Blue Guitar

with a better explanation, but in lieu of that..
Make a cathode that looks like the back of a
porcupine., and install it in a standard
electron tube. Wow, tons of electron flow at
low voltage and little heat!! Killer tube!
OTL heaven!!!
Cancel all those MOSFET orders!
Arggh! Big problem! All those little
porcupiine cathode quills need to be
equidiistant from the anode, otherwise you get
hot spots. Very hard to avoid in production.
So the concept of GFET (Gated Field Effect Triodes)
was born. Every liittle stalactite cathode is on a
ceramic substrate,and gets its own anode.
A little circular grid surrounds each cathode,
controlling
Now, go REALLY nuts. Put 10,000 of the
little buggers in a circular millimeter.
Holy VLSI, Batman, a vacuum tube
integrated circuit!!
No theory here..it's already been done.
Yes, there are web pages on it!
Ask your Government why we spend millions
of $$$$ of tax money every year on this item,
yet you folks have to learn about it on Usenet.
Gotta run, the Illuminati have seen this
post, and are coming to kidnap me!!
Just kidding, but why isn't all this
common knowledge? It's not a new thing!
