Abstract :
Advances made in the design, construction, and characteristics of microchannel-plate inverter image intensifiers are described and their use in electro-optical systems is discussed. Particular emphasis will be placed on the electron optics and on the electron-lens/microchannel-plate interface design requirements. Proximity focusing is shown to be a logical choice for the microchannel-plate/phosphor-screen output section.
