Abstract
The cathode (4) the material of which is substantially high-melting metal such as W, Mo, Ta, Nb, Re and/or C, consists of a very fine-grained mechanically stable support layer (5), a series of layers (6) considerably enriched with emissive material, in general from the scandium group especially from the group of rare earth metals, preferably with Th or compounds thereof and a thermally stable preferentially oriented coating layer (7). All the layers are provided via the gaseous phase, for example, CVD methods, on a substrate (1) formed according to the desired cathode geometry. The substrate (1) is removed after termination of the deposition. FIG. 2.
