Photoemissive and Electroemissive Surfaces and Sandwiches
Abstract
Several commercially available photoemissive surfaces (PES) and electroemissive surfaces (ES) are evaluated to find: (1) the most efficient PES in the presence of sunlight-like optical signals, and, (2) the most efficient ES/PES combination (sandwich) for the transition between stages in an optical sensor employing, for example, an image intensifier tube coupled to an ebsicon- type camera tube. In the first case, an S-20VR PES is shown to be superior; while in the second case, a P-11/S-20 sandwich is shown to be the superior combination.
