Definitions and meanings of "Triode"

What do we mean by triode?

An electron tube used mostly for signal amplification, consisting of a cathode, an anode, and an intervening wire mesh called a control grid. noun

A thermionic valve containing an anode, a cathode, and a control grid; small changes to the charge on the grid control the flow from cathode to anode which makes amplification possible noun

A thermionic vacuum tube having three electrodes; fluctuations of the charge on the grid control the flow from cathode to anode which makes amplification possible noun

A thermionic valve containing an anode, a cathode, and a control grid; small changes to the charge on the grid control the flow from cathode to anode, which makes amplification possible.

We will attempt to produce a transformation of the Earth into a special triode, so that we may then introduce a relatively small "grid signal" and gate highly amplified energy from the Earth's interior self-powered cathode to an external plate load on the surface. ❋ Unknown (1990)

In effect, the Earth has been converted into a giant self-powered triode, and now any distant input site will function as both a grid input and a plate collector for the triode Earth. ❋ Unknown (1990)

Note that the entire process can be compared to a triode: the signal wave constitutes the grid signal, the pump wave constitutes the plate voltage, and the nucleus of the atom in the dielectric provides the self-powered cathode. ❋ Unknown (1990)
