RESEARCH ON STORAGE TARGETS FOR CAMERA TUBES

Abstract

Two tubes with internally processed S-11 (Cs-Sb) photocathodes were made. Neither tube showed indications of adverse effects on target performance due to the photocathode processing. Although the photocathodes of these tubes were of the flip-over type, several tubes with S-20 photo cathodes processed in the normal manner were also free of adverse photocathode-target interactions. Experience gained from a parallel program shows that the SEC target is also compatible with Cs-I and Cs-Te photocathodes. In view of these results, it seems highly unlikely that other commonly used photocathodes should present a compatibility problem.
