Abstract: A cathode (5) for emitting photoelectrons or secondary electrons comprises a nickel electrode substrate (5c) with an aluminum layer (5b) deposited on it; an intermediate layer (5a) consisting of carbon nanotubes formed on the aluminum layer; and an alkaline metal layer (5d) formed on the intermediate layer (5a) and composed, for example, of particles of an alkali antimony compound that either emits photoelectrons in response to incident light or emits secondary electrons in response to incident electrons. The decrease in defect density of the particles reduces the probability of recombination of electron and hole remarkably, thus increasing quantum efficiency.

Abstract: A photomultiplier is constituted by a photocathode and an electron multiplier having a typical structure in which a dynode unit having a plurality of dynode plates stacked in an incident direction of photoelectrons, an anode plate, and an inverting dynode plate are sequentially stacked. Through holes for injecting a metal vapor are formed in the inverting dynode plate to form secondary electron emitting layers on the surfaces of dynodes supported by the dynode plates, and the photocathode. With this structure, the secondary electron emitting layers are uniformly formed on the surfaces of the dynodes. Therefore, variations in output signals obtained from anodes can be reduced regardless of the positions of the photocathode.

Abstract: Before being introduced within the intensifier, the grid which is nearest the anode is coated with a layer of electrically conductive material having the property of oxidizing alkali metals. This has the effect of elininating any parasitic illumination of the viewing screen caused by alkali metals unintentionally deposited on the grid at the time of formation of the photocathode.

Abstract: An input screen and method of forming one for an image intensifier tube including a substrate in which a plurality of crystal grains of aluminum or aluminum alloy are formed in a plane with the crystal grains having non-directional shapes in the plane. The crystal grains are formed by heating in a vacuum or non-oxidizing atmosphere at a temperature between 450.degree. C. and 650.degree. C. The oxidized layer is next removed by an etchant, and a phosphor layer formed on the crystal grains by vapor-deposit.

Abstract: A photocathode is formed by depositing a film of tellurium on a conductive base and then sensitizing the tellurium with at least two different alkali metals such as cesium and potassium or sodium and potassium. The photocathode has high sensitivity in the ultraviolet region and is substantially insensitive to solar radiation through the earth's atmosphere. Such a photocathode is useful in "solar-blind" detectors.

Abstract: The cathode for photo-electron emission 5 is comprised of an alkali metal containing layer 5d made of material for emitting photo-electrons by the entry of light or for emitting secondary electrons by the entry of electrons, such as particles which consist of an alkali antimony compound, on an Ni electrode substrate 5c on which an Al layer 5b is deposited, and has an intermediate layer 5a made of carbon nano-tubes between the alkali metal containing layer 5d and the Ni electrode substrate 5c, therefore the defect density inside the particles is decreased, and the recombining probability of electrons and holes drops remarkably, which improves the quantum efficiency.
