A high-voltage terminal has been constructed for housing the various power supplies and metering circuits required by the field-emission gun (described elsewhere in these Proceedings) for the high-coherence microscope. The terminal is cylindrical in shape having a diameter of 14 inches and a length of 24 inches. It is completely enclosed by an aluminum housing filled with Freon-12 gas at essentially atmospheric pressure. The potential of the terminal relative to ground is, of course, equal to the accelerating potential of the microscope, which in the present case, is 150 kilovolts maximum.

AbstractTetrahedral framework compounds, as defined in this paper, generally exist as tilted and distorted versions of ideal fully expanded structures at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. How pressure, temperature, and composition (P, T, and X) affect the tilting and distortion is critically reviewed. Although P, T, and X are generally regarded as analogous variables in their effect on framework structures there is reason to believe that they have different structural effects. In particular, an important, and frequently neglected, thermal effect is the apparent shortening of the framework bonds by the anisotropic thermal motion of the framework oxygens. The effects of P, T, and X on displacive transformations in framework compounds are reviewed with particular reference to the disordered alkali feldspars and the leucites. It seems probable from the available evidence that displacive transformations do not take place at a critical size of the framework. Displacive transformations can take place with or without a volume discontinuity and hysteresis. Furthermore, the effects of P, T, and X on a solid-solution series with a displacive transformation can be different, one variable causing a volume discontinuity and another a smooth transition.
