Abstract

Large-area x-ray sensitive vidicons have the potential to be superior to conventional x-ray image intensifiers for medical fluoroscopy. To build a large-area x-ray vidicon, an electron lens system is necessary to provide perpendicular beam landing. In this paper, we presented the results of the lens design for this purpose. In this paper, we discus in detail the method used in our design.
