Abstract: The evaporation rate of element La at different temperatures in carbonized Mo-La2O3 cathode were calculated according to thermodynamics theory. The results show that the diffusion rate is greater than the evaporation rate of La on cathode surface at the temperature range of 1623-1700K, so the formation and evaporation of La can remain balance and the emission current is stable, and that when the operating temperature is above 1700K, the evaporation rate of La exceeds its diffusion rate on the cathode surface so that the emission current decreases gradually. In addition, the emission properties of the FU-6051 tubes equipped with Mo-La2O3 cathodes were tested at different temperatures, and the experimental results confirme the thermodynamic calculation.
