Zusammenfassung: | In the present invention, a flat emitter is formed from emitter material preforms shaped as thin sheets of the emitter material. These sheets are subjected to various levels and/or amounts of mechanical working during their initial formation and are bonded to one another to create a preform having the desired thickness. The preform including the bonded sheets is subsequently worked to shape the preform into the desired configuration for the emitter. The working of the sheets of emitter material utilized to create the preform and the working of the preform to form the emitter provide a highly creep-resistant emitter that significantly improves the operation and useful life of the resulting emitter. |
