EXPLORATORY DEVELOPMENT OF HIGH RESOLUTION TELEVISION CAMERA TUBES.

Abstract

The objective of this program is to develop high performance television camera tubes by exploiting the capabilities of the secondary electron conduction (SEC) storage target. The program is divided into two principle areas. First, it is intended to establish current performance limitations of the SEC target by measuring such parameters as resolution, gain and capacity. Particular emphasis will be placed on the resolution measurements. Second, attempts will be made to find out how the target, or its mode of operation, may be modified so as to improve overall camera tube performance. Again, special attention will be devoted to achieving better resolution. The two lines of investigation are complementary, and the test equipment and procedures developed for the first part of the program will be used to evaluate any promising target modification devised during the second part.
