- A diode vacuum tube in which the flow of electrons from a central cathode to a cylindrical anode is controlled by crossed magnetic and electric fields; used mainly in microwave oscillators
- The cavity magnetron is a high-powered vacuum tube that generates microwaves using the interaction of a stream of electrons with a magnetic field. The 'resonant' cavity magnetron variant of the earlier magnetron tube was invented by Randall and Boot in 1940. ...
- A device in which electrons are made to resonate in a specially shaped chamber and thus produce microwave radiation; used in radar, and in microwave ovens
- Magnetron is essentially a tube utilizing electrical and magnetic currents for creating an intense heat output. The electromagnetic energy thus created has speeds equivalent to the speed of light.
- Process in which plasma is confined by a magnetic field, ionization efficiency is increased leading to higher density of ions
- A device designed to produce very short radio waves in radio-frequency energized UV lamps.
