Examples of thermionic current
thermionic current
By arranging for this thermionic current to be harvested, electrical power can be generated directly.
From the guardian.co.uk
Some types of smaller thermionic rectifiers sometimes had mercury vapor fill to reduce their forward voltage drop and to increase current rating over thermionic hard-vacuum devices.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The negative electrostatic field created by the grid in the vicinity of the cathode would inhibit thermionic emission and reduce the current to the plate.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The photon enhanced thermionic emission, or PETE, works best at high temperatures, where current photovoltaics struggle.

These systems keep the cathodes of the fluorescent tube fully heated even as the arc current is reduced, promoting easy thermionic emission of electrons into the arc stream.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The current through the filaments causes them to heat up and emit electrons into the tube gas by thermionic emission.
From the en.wikipedia.org
A cathode made of a wire filament heated red hot by a separate current passing through it would release electrons into the tube by a process called thermionic emission.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Modern vacuum tubes use thermionic emission, in which the cathode is made of a thin wire filament which is heated by a separate electric current passing through it.
