Limit operating frequency of vacuum diode ========================================= The vacuum diode has a limit operating frequency. At higher frequencies, the diode stops functioning normally, since the electrons will not have time to move from the cathode to the anode. **Notation:** #. :math:`e` (:code:`e`) is :attr:`~symplyphysics.quantities.elementary_charge`. #. :math:`m_\text{e}` (:code:`m_e`) is :attr:`~symplyphysics.quantities.electron_rest_mass`. ..
