Abstract
The shape of the cut‐off curve is explained on the basis of a component of high energy random motion superimposed on the electron orbital motion (see references). Electron temperatures determined from the cut‐off curve shape agree with those determined by probe methods. The possible effects of the random motion on other magnetron characteristics are pointed out.Keywords
