Abstract :
The rapid development of silicon target vidicon technology has led to the development of a new type of camera tube-silicon intensifier target camera tube -extending the operational range of silicon-type devices to very low light levels. This paper will discuss the tube´s design whose advantages include low dark current, low lag, high resolution, high overload resistance and low-light operation near the photoelectron noise limit.
