Abstract

We examined by means of a field emission microscope the degassing process of tantalum tips and the deformation of pure tips, on the one hand under the influence of heating only, and on the other under the influence of both heating and electric field. In the former case we observed a behaviour similar to that of tungsten, in the other case a behaviour different from it. We observed also the formation of twin crystals under the influence of heat.

Резюме

Пространственно-эмиссионным микроскопом исследовались процесс дегазирования танталовых вершин и деформация чистых вершин под влиянием нагревания, а с другой стороны нагревания и электрического поля. В первом случае наблюдалось поведение, аналогичное наблюдаемому у вольфрама, а во втором — отличное от этого. Наблюдалось образование двойниковых кристаллов под влиянием тепла.
