The electron diffraction tube is highly evacuated tube with an electron gun consisting of pure tungsten heater filament and cylindrical anode all contained in clear glass bulb. The electrons emitted by the heated cathode are constrained to narrow beam by an aperture and are then focussed by means of an electron-optical system. The resulting tight, monochromatic beam then passes through micro-mesh nickel grating situated at the aperture of the gun. Onto this grid, thin layer of polycrystalline graphitised carbon has been deposited by vaporisation. This layer affects the electrons in the beam much like diffraction grating. The result of this diffraction is seen in the form of an image comprising two concentric rings that become visible on the fluorescent screen. spot resulting from the un-deflected electron beam continues to be visible at the centre of the rings. Also requires an EHT power supply.

The Fine Beam Tube is used for investigating the deflection of cathode rays in uniform magnetic field produced by pair of 300 mm Helmholtz coils. In addition, it can also be used for quantitative determination of the specific charge of an electron e/m.
Located inside glass bulb with neon residual gas atmosphere is an electron gun, which consists of an indirectly heated oxide cathode, Wehnelt cylinder and perforated anode. The gas atoms are ionised along the path of the electrons and narrow, well-defined, luminescent beam is produced. Incorporated measurement marks facilitate parallax-free determination of the diameter of the circular path of the beam deflected in the magnetic field. The Fine Beam Tube is mounted on base with coloured connectors. In order to protect the tube, protective circuit is built into the base, which shuts off any voltage in excess of the base's pre-set cut-off voltage. The protective circuit prevents excessive voltages from damaging the heater filament and ensures ""smooth"" switch-on response once the voltage is applied. Requires 0-300 DC power supply and 300 mm Helmholtz coils.
