Abstract

The present invention relates to a high ampere density electron emitter material and a manufacture method thereof, in particular to a high ampere density electron emitter material having zirconium-tungsten matrix and the manufacture method thereof; the basal body of the material of the invention is zirconium dioxide and tungsten; tungsten powder is weighed, annealed in a hydrogen furnace, then grinded, and filtered with a screen of 80 meshes; the filtered tungsten powder and ZrO2are grinded to be even, then molded, and disposed in aluminate powder and immersed in hydrogen circumstance; after the floating salt is removed, the electron emitter material is made. The average pore diameter of the zirconium-tungsten basal body made by the invention becomes smaller, and the pore diameter distribution becomes narrower; when the working temperature is 1050 DEG C, the current density emitted by the cathode of the invention is 1.73 to 1.86 times larger than that of the traditional barium-tungsten cathode.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a high current density electron emitter material and a preparation method, in particular to a zirconium-tungsten-based high current density electron emitter material and a preparation method, and belongs to the technical field of refractory metal cathode materials containing additives. Background technique [0002] Electron emitters are the heart of vacuum electronic devices, and are widely used in various electronic information systems and equipment such as radar, electronic countermeasures, and communication telemetry and remote control. With the development of working frequency to the millimeter wave band and the miniaturization of device size, the requirements for high current density, long life and high working stability of electron emitters are particularly urgent. The currently developed method is to add Cr to the traditional barium tungsten cathode substrate 2 O (composition weight ratio Cr 2 o 3 1-20%, tungsten powd...
