OSTI ID:4757191
A two-stage nuclear track image intensifier (RCA Tube Type C70062) was developed for use with large fiber scintillation chambers. The first stage has an 8-in.-dia. S-20 photocathode on a curved 0.040 in.-thick glass faceplate for direct optical coupling to the scintillation chamber. The demagnified image is stored on a short decay P-15 phosphor and transmitted by fiber optics to the S-20 photocathodes of the second intensifier stage. This stage has a shutter aperture (no grid wires) that can be gated from off'' to on'' with a pulse of only 400 volts, to transmit the track image to the final 3-in.-dia. P11 screen. The quantum gain can exceed 200, and, with a demagnification of 1/8 and 3% linear distortion, a fiber of 1 mm on the first cathode can be resolved on the screen. (auth)
