  • Abstract
    Introduction of gas or vapor into electron tubes has increased greatly the field of application of these devices. Hot-cathode mercury vapor tubes of this type are especially adapted to rectifier and inverter service. Fundamentals, design features, and operating characteristics of these tubes are given in this article.
