Abstract
IN the course of our investigations into the causes of deterioration of emission from oxide cathodes, we have noticed a phenomenon of possible significance. The phenomenon has been found to be common to a variety of tubes, including commercial pentodes and valves prepared in our own laboratory. A full investigation will be published in due course ; but it is felt that a note at this stage might interest some readers.
