Also known as a vacuum tube, an
electron tube is a glass tube and/or bulb that looks similar to light
bulbs used in house lights today. Electron tubes were used in early
computers as on and off switches for digital
transmission. Today, electron tubes are no longer used in computers and
have been replaced by various types of transistors.

listings of electron tubes can be found here.
