APPLIED RESEARCH ON SEC AMPLIFICATION CAMERA TUBE

Abstract

A new type of storage target for use in camera tubes was developed. This target is based on the principle of secondary electron emission and secondary electron conduction of a low-density deposit of an insulator or semiconductor under excitation of KeV electrons. This target is referred to as SEC-target. The design, fabrica tion and preliminary evaluation of the first three, out of eight, SEC-Vidicons are described.
