Feb. An electronic valve in accordance with the present invention comprises a perforated cylindrical sheet cathode one surface of which is adapted to emit electrons and has a maximum secondary emission coefficient greater than unity, an electrode coaxial with and facing the other surface and means for setting up in the electrode/cathode space both an axial magnetic field and a radial R.F. alternating electric field, the arrangement and applied fields being such that electrons emitted from the emissive surface return towards and either pass through or strike said surface, those passing through being collected by the anode.
