Fig. 65 shows that the repeller design is such that the cylindricaloutgoing stream is focussed upon its return onto the frame supporting thefirst grid. The cathode spike prevents emission from the central portionof the cathode, since it would be difficult to prevent electrons from thisportion from returning into the cathode space.
