Abstract

1,081,829. Electron multipliers. CSF-COMPAGNIE GENERALE DE TELEGRAPHIE SANS FIL. March 23, 1966 [March 24, 1965], No. 12928/66. Heading H1D. In an electron multiplier in which primary electrons are arranged to be projected into straight, parallel canals, placed in a longitudinal electric field, to obtain secondary electron emission from the internal surfaces of the canals, the canals are pierced in the body of a reverse biased silicon diode. A monocrystal of silicon 11, e.g. 1 mm. thick, has a rectifying gold contact 12 on one face and an aluminium or indium layer 13 on the other face which provides an ohmic contact and a battery 15 maintains layer 13 at - 1000 v. with respect to layer 14. The canals 14 may be 30 microns in diameter and spaced apart 100 microns and may be pierced in the silicon by electron beam or laser effect. The diode may be of the lithiumdrifted type. In Fig. 4 (not shown) the multiplier is employed in a light intensifier.
