Thefundamental construction is shown in Figure 11,The tube contains a filament, F, a perforatedanode, A, and a plate, P. One of the peculiar operating character-istics of the dynatron is that within a certainregion of voltages applied to the plate circuit,the device acts as a eimple rectifier, but atother values of plate voltage it acts as a truenegative resistance, that is, an applied e. m, i?e ra^£&r 3-^L£cr/zff/?£ \/alu^ THjs s /S.
