Abstract
Three principal methods of light amplification are described. These are (a) Electron optical image tubes. (b) Contiguous layers of photoconductor and electroluminescent phosphor. (c) Direct amplification of light in photoelectro-luminescent film. Details of construction and relative merits of each are presented.
