Development of 40 and 80 mm Camera Tubes with Deep Etch Metal Cap Targets for Space Surveillance.

Abstract

Final technical report summarizes tube design and development program for large format camera tubes capable of high performance. The report describes the results of the two year program relative to number of tubes and tube performance. Large 32 mm silicon diode target performance as part of tube characteristics discussed. Development problems such as photocathode processing and their solution is recorded. The report ends with a profile of tubes through their specification and an overall look at tube life. (Author)
