cathodes
Electrons exit here
Cathodes is the plural of cathode, the electrode through which electric current flows out of a device.
In a battery, the cathode is the positive terminal; in electrolysis, it's where reduction occurs.
Cathode ray tubes once powered televisions and monitors: The old TV's cathodes had finally burned out.
