Description: Uses diagrams and models to show the construction and operation of vaccuum tubes. Describes the filament and plate of a diode, shows that current can move only from filament to plate, and explains how diodes thus function as rectifiers of alternating current. Describes construction of a triode and explains how it operates to amplify electrical impulses.
