Experiments on the use of CCD's to detect photoelectron images

摘要

Image tube design and processing requirements for building an ICCD are discussed. Work is under way at EVC for building an ICCD using the Fairchild CCD 201 (100 x 100) array, and progress will be reported. Demountable tests have been made, exposing parts of a CCD 201 to 15 kilovolt electrons over five radiation levels from approximately 10 to 1 million rads. Other tubes built by EVC over the last few years which successfully use semiconductors to detect photoelectrons will be described briefly.
