Multiplier is formed of glass and includes cylindrically-shaped main channel element having length-to-diameter ratio of 50 to 1. Element has open slot along its length. Attached to slot edges are two glass plates set at an angle to each other. Inside surfaces are coated with secondary electron emissive coating.
A radiation or charged particle detector is described which incorporates a channel multiplier structure to amplify the detected rays or particles. The channel multiplier structure has a support multiplying element with a longitudinal slot along one side. The element supports a pair of plates positioned contiguous with the slot. The plates funnel the particles or rays to be detected into the slotted aperture and the element, thus creating an effectively wide aperture detector of the windowless type.
Peaked pulse height distributions for channel electron multiplier at high gain levels
Continuous channel electron multiplier operated in pulse saturated mode, noting space charge limiting as major cause of gain saturation
