Exhibit presents structured streak camera photocathode that provides enhanced efficiency for high-energy X-rays. The gold-coated photocathode was tested in a Streaked Polar Instrumentation for Diagnosing Energetic Radiation (SPIDER)device and compared side by side against a conventional flat thin-film photocathode.
