2. Description
The Franck-Hertz control unit can be used to
conduct the Franck-Hertz experiment with
mercury vapour or with neon gas. It provides
all of the operating voltages required to conduct
the Franck-Hertz experiment, and contains a highly
sensitive DC amplifier to measure the current at
the collector electrode.
1. Accelerating voltage U
Options are a regulated DC voltage of 0 ... 80 V
(toggle switch: "Man") or a sawtooth voltage 0 ...
80 V
, 50/60 Hz (toggle switch: Ramp). At the oscil-
SS
loscope output U
/10, this voltage is divided by 10.

2. Heater voltage U
:
H
DC voltage 4 ... 12 V for the heater filament of the
indirectly heated oxide cathode.
3. Retarding voltage U
:
G
DC voltage of 1, 2 ... 10 V for reverse bias between
grid and collector electrode.
4. Control voltage:
DC voltage of 9 V for the control grid in the neon-
filled Franck-Hertz tube
5. DC amplifier:
The DC amplifier provides a voltage proportional to
the collector current, rated up to 10 mA. At the
lowest amplification 1 V of voltage measured corre-
