Electron Diffraction Tube
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.

E-Field Apparatus
This apparatus allows visualisation of electric fields between various electrode configurations, in a similar way to how iron filings allow visualisation of magnetic fields. It is constructed from transparent acrylic, which allows it to be placed on an overhead projector for class demonstrations but can also be used on white surface for use with visualisers or for direct observation by smaller groups. In order to create electric fields large enough to influence the particles, a high voltage, low current 2-5kV EHT power supply is required. Apparatus includes electrodes, clear acrylic base with 4 mm sockets to clamp electrodes and connect power supply, petri dishes and instructions. Also requires liquid paraffin (PA4452 or PA4454 and semolina (not supplied). Base dimensions (L x W x H): 150 x 150x 65 mm.
