Català: Dibuix seccionat que mostra l'estructura d'un triode de baixa potència en un tub de buit. El tríode, inventat el 1906 per Lee De Forest, va ser el primer dispositiu que podia amplificar i es va utilitzar àmpliament en ràdios, televisors i sistemes d'àudio i transmissors de ràdio fins que va ser substituït en gran part pel transistor als anys 60.
Svenska: triod
English: Cutaway drawing showing the construction of a low power triodevacuum tube. The triode, invented in 1906 by Lee De Forest, was the first device which could amplify and it was used widely in radios, televisions, audio systems and radio transmitters until it was largely replaced by the transistor in the 1960s.
It consists of an evacuated glass tube containing three concentric electrodes: a cathode heated by a filament, a grid, and a plate. The three outer electrodes are shown with part cut away to reveal the construction. The cathode is a narrow metal tube down the center, containing the filament, a loop of high resistance nichrome wire with a separate current passing through it to heat. It heats the cathode red hot (800-1000° C). The heat causes the cathode to release electrons into the vacuum inside the tube. The cathode is coated with alkaline earth oxides such as calcium oxide or thorium to reduce it's work function, to increase the electron production. The negative electrons are attracted to the positive voltage on the plate, a cylinder of sheet metal surrounding the cathode, and travel to it, creating an electric current from the cathode to the plate. The grid is a screen or helix of wires between cathode and plate. The electrons have to pass through the grid wires to get to the plate. A voltage applied between the grid and cathode can control the cathode-plate current. A negative voltage on the grid will repel some of the electrons, so fewer get through to the plate, reducing the plate current. A positive voltage on the grid will attract more electrons through, increasing the plate current. Thus a small voltage on the grid can control a much larger plate current, which can be used to amplify. Almost all the air is evacuated from the sealed glass envelope, to about 10-9 atm, so the electrons will not be obstructed by gas atoms. The parts inside the tube are supported by wires which connect the electrodes to pins on the bottom of the tube. A thin shiny spot of barium metal (not shown) is evaporated onto the glass during manufacture. This is called a getter and helps maintain the vacuum by absorbing residual gas released by the metal parts after evacuation.
