A microchannel plate (MCP) is used to detect single particles (electrons, ions and neutrons [1]) and photons (ultraviolet radiation and X-rays).It is closely related to an electron multiplier, as both intensify single particles or photons by the multiplication of electrons via secondary emission. [2] Because a microchannel plate detector has many separate channels, it can provide spatial ...

MCPs provide spatial information for detection and amplification of signals from electrons, ions, vacuum UV rays, x-rays, and gamma rays. We also offer ready-to-use MCP assemblies complete with electrode leads.

As the leading provider of MCPs for electron multiplication, Photonis provides our MCPs in a variety of custom sizes (4mm to 150mm) and configurations (Z-Stack or Chevron). Our extended dynamic range output option increases detection up to ten times over traditional MCPs.

A microchannel plate (MCP) is essentially a fast high-gain amplifier for electrons, having many parallel spatial channels for use in imaging applications. It is directly sensitive not only to input electrons, but also to other charged particles (e.g. ions or elementary particles) and to electromagnetic radiation with sufficiently short ...

A microchannel plate (MCP) is an array of 104-107 miniature electron multipliers oriented parallel to one another (fig. 1); typical channel diameters are in the range 10-100 µm and have length to diameter ratios (α) between 40 and 100. Channel axes are typically normal to, or biased at a small angle (~8°) to the MCP input surface. Theand E.U.V.

Microchannel plate (MCP) detectors - What are they and what are they good for? MCP are made up from a dense stack of millions of individual electron multiplier tubes, each tube having a diameter of typically 10 micrometer and a length of about 1 mm.

DEL MAR PHOTONICS Microchannel Plate Detectors MCP-MA series are an open MCP detectors with one or more microchannel plates and a single metal anode. They are intended for time-resolved detection and make use of high-speed response properties of the MCPs.

At present, a low energy electrostatic storage ring operating at cryogenic temperatures down to 2 K (CSR) is being build up at the Max-Planck-Institut für Kernphysik (MPIK) in Heidelberg [1].

Jan 1, 2020 · Detectors with microchannel plates (MCPs) are widely used at the present time in the applications where photon/particle counting with high spatial (~10–20 μm) and temporal resolution (~10–50 ps) with low readout noise and high dynamic range is required.

MCP-detectors are based on high performance microchannel plates with 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 15 μm channel diameters of different design formats: circular, square, rectangular, with central hole, of complex configurations and various dimensions.
