Key components are an ideal vacuum diode and an energized solenoid surrounding it. The experiment measures tungsten's electron work function using a tungsten-filament ideal cathode and coaxial cylindrical anode. The emitting surface is limited to a uniformly heated length while approximating infinitely long electrodes without edge effects. Work-function measurement combines Richardson straight-line measurement, extension measurement (source wording), compensation measurement, and magnetron methods, providing useful data-processing training and a meaningful experiment.

Applications

Measure metal electron work function; study electron motion in radial electric and axial magnetic fields, using the magnetron method to measure charge-to-mass ratio; study the Fermi-Dirac distribution; measure ideal-vacuum-diode current-voltage characteristics. Experiment one: Metal electron work function. Table 1: Anode currents and logarithms at different anode voltages and filament temperatures. Plot l_gIₐ versus √Uₐ, obtain intercept l_gI at each temperature, and enter it in Table 2. Table 2: Values of lg(I/T²) and 1/T calculated at different temperatures T. Experiment two: Electron motion in radial electric and axial magnetic fields and magnetron charge-to-mass-ratio measurement. Experiment three: Fermi-Dirac distribution. Experiment four: Ideal-vacuum-diode current-voltage characteristics.

Key Features

Custom ideal-vacuum-diode holder: A transparent acrylic cover allows direct observation and protects the glass device. A clear schematic on the base explains the experiment. A matching solenoid fits conveniently over the cover. Precision anode-current module: A microampere-level amplifier and four-and-a-half-digit display measure weak current accurately, finely, and stably over 0.1uA~20mA. Stable anode-voltage module: A linearly adjustable supply provides 0~160.0V. Convenient acquisition: The supply has 2 interfaces for voltage sensors and PASCO software, enabling large live datasets for fast, efficient analysis.
