Abstract
This paper introduces a newly developed dual-layer porous tungsten dispenser cathode, which can meet the growing requirements on both life and current density. In comparison with the conventional dispenser cathodes, the new-type dispenser cathodes have higher emission current density, lower evaporation rate and longer lifetime. According to the results of the life tests and the related analysis, their longest lifetime at a 1.5 A/cm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> current density under 974 °C <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">br</sub> is estimated to be over 1.9 ×10 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">5</sup> h.
