Abstract

971,733. Electron multipliers. BENDIX CORPORATION. May 31, 1962 [June 16, 1961], No. 21077/62. Addition to 950,640. Heading H1D. A particle multiplier, e.g. an image intensifier of a kind described and claimed in the parent Specification, comprises a nest of parallel tubes 18, each having an inner surface which is resistive and secondary-electron emissive, and an outer layer having a low melting point, fused together into a compact block. The tubes 18 may be formed from a relatively large diameter soda lime glass tube, which is coated internally with lead bismuth glass and externally with solder glass, before being drawn to a diameter of about 0.001 inch. The lead bismuth glass may be applied as a fine powder mixed with a binder which is fused while rotating the tube. Alternatively, the tubes 18 may be of glass containing compounds of lead and bismuth, which can be reduced in hydrogen at 325‹ to 500‹ C. to produce an inner resistive surface. After fusing the tubes 18 together, the ends are coated with gold or silver, by painting or by vapour deposition at a steep angle, for connection across a voltage source 32.
