Entertaining Electronics

Front Cover Title Page Contents Preface Chapter 1: Electrons and Electronics Parting with its atom the electon gains its freedom Current can flow not only in a meta l but also in a gas, liquid or vacuum Inside the tube there are also electrodes The grid made a revilution Chapter 2: How were waves discovered? No empty space around charges! Electrons work collectively Without motion there is no induction Chapter 3: Electrons, waves fields Here oscillations are born There are different kinds of waves Capacitor safeguards against accidents What is the purpose of curvature Thus the image is formed Electronic eye sees everything Magnet can also serve as lenses Beam cuts metal Chapter 4: Up the frequency scale All waves are necessary A different kind of triode The electron finds its way into the magnetron Field is a cold fire Atoms instead of tuned circuits In space and on the Earth Chapter 5: Elements of "wise" machines The two scales of a balance Simple gives birth to complex What memory is made of Electrons and holes meet P-N junctions re required With the aid of semiconductors Thus miniature size is achieved Electrons will prolong your life
