Storage camera tube with non-destructive readout
Abstract
Progress during the 5th through the 7th months of this contract for further development of a storage camera tube is reported. Effort was concentrated in the area of 1.06 M quantum efficiency and resolution of this tube, which is capable of rapid switching between two modes: real-time television, and storage with non-destructive readout. Checkout of the new H1349 design, providing a 40-millimeter image format, proceeded in parallel with the target development. Questions of front and back surface target reflectivity and the efficient absorption of photons are addressed.
