" METHOD OF MAKING 'AN IMAGE INTENSIFIER ARRAY AND RESULTANT ARTICLE Original Filed June 9, 1961 GUIDE PI'NS STACKS OF ETCHED SHEETS BAGDASAR DERADOORIAN I HAYDEN M. SMITH w BY ROBERT R. THOMPSON ATTORNEY United States Patent US. Cl. 313-105 9 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This invention pertains to a method of manufacturing an image intensifier array and the resultant article. A plurality of thin glass sheets compounded with oxides of lead and bismuth, are perforated as by photoetching, the glass sheets are stacked so that the perforations become aligned to form individual channels, and the individual thin sheets are bonded together with sufiicient sheets being used to establish the desired length of the channel. The interior surfaces of the array channels are then hydrogen reduced by heating said sheets to an elevated temperature while flowing hydrogen through the passages to produce a secondary emissive resistive surface.
BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY OF THE DEVELOPMENT This is a continuation of our copending application Ser. N0. 405,020, filed October 14, 1964, which is a continuation of application Ser. No. 116,044, filed June 9, 1961, and entitled Image Intensifier Array, both now abandoned.
In the Goodrich and Wiley patent, an image intensifier or channel multiplier is disclosed wherein a tube or channel of relatively small diameter in the order of .001 inch is provided on the inside surface with a secondary emissive resistive material. A voltage differential is placed across the tube or channel to accelerate incoming electrons through the channel and also provide current in the resistive coating for supplying electrons that are used in the secondary emission. An array of many of these tubes may be placed together to form a large area electron multiplier. An image intensifier can be made by placing a photocathode at one end of the array for conventing light rays into corresponding electron emission, and providing a phosphor screen at the other end of the array to convert the multiplied electrons into visible radiation.
This invention provides a method for constructing an array of such multipliers disclosed in the Goodrich and Wiley patent. In this invention a plurality of thin glass sheets compounded with oxides of lead and bismuth, are perforated as by photoetching, the glass sheets are stacked so that the perforations become aligned to form individual channels, and then the individual thin sheets are bonded together with sufficient sheets being used to establish the desired length of the channel.
It is therefore an object of this invention to form an array of small diameter individual tubes or channels which have a secondary emissive resistive surface on the interior thereof, which comprises the steps of perforating a plurality of thin glass sheets which contain compounds to make the sheets conductive to a desired degree, and stracking and bonding a sutficient number of sheets together with the perforations aligned to form a plurality of individual small diameter channels. The interior surfaces of the array channels are then hydrogen reduced 3,492,523 Patented Jan. 27, 1970 or otherwise treated to provide the desired resistive characteristics.
It is a further object of this invention to provide in such method the step of photoetching to produce the perforations in the individual glass plates.
It is a further object to place near the end of the array, such as between the final two layers of glass sheets, a highly conductive perforated plate so that a voltage lead may be attached to the plate to provide a gate for electrons formed in and coming through individual channels.
These and other objects and advantages will become more apparent when a preferred embodiment of this invention is considered in connection with the drawings in which:
FIGURE 1 is a plan view of a single sheet having a plurality of holes formed therein;
FIGURE 2 is a view in perspective of a partially completed stack of individual glass plates which are perforated and cemented in accordance with this invention; and
FIGURE 3 is a perspective view of a completed array.
Shown in FIGURE 1 is a glass sheet or film 20 which is in the order of .005 inch in thickness and may be composed of a mixture of 32 percent lead oxide, 61.3 percent silicon dioxide, 6.2 percent of barium carbonate and .5 of 1 percent bismuth trioxide. A plurality of holes 22 are formed in the sheet with the holes being small in diameter, in the neighborhood of .001 inch, and closely spaced. The spacing between holes in this embodiment is .1 the diameter of a hole. Two guide slots 24, 26 are formed near diagonally opposite corners of the sheet to effect alignment of the sheets as later explained.
The holes or perforations 22 may be formed in sheet 20 by a process known as photoetching. In this process a coating which is sensitive to light is placed on sheet 20.
. A transparent or transulcent negative having a plurality of opaque areas corresponding to the size and placement of holes 22 desired in sheet 20, is placed over the light sensitive coating and is exposed to a light for a predetermined length of time. The negative is removed and coating is then developed in a solution which dissolves the areas not subjected to the light, which would be the areas under the opaque sections corresponding to holes 22. An etch is used on the surface of the coating, which now has holes through it corresponding to holes 22 in glass sheet 20, to etch holes in sheet 20. After the etching is complete, a dissolver for the coating is utilized to clean the coating from sheet 20. This process is well known in the art and specific material for the light sensi tive coating, developing solution and etch can be obtained by consulting Techniques for Ruling and Etching Precise Scales in Glass and their Reproduction by Photoetching with a New Light Sensitive Resist US. National Bureau of Standards, circular 565:1-36, p. 30 C, Superintendent of Documents 1955. Also, photosensitive glass may be used in which case the step of applying and removing the resist coating on the glass becomes unnecessary.
Next, the individual glass sheets 20, prepared as previously described with perforations or holes 22, are stacked so that guide slots 24, 26 are aligned, and the stack is placed over guide pins 28, 30, FIGURE 2, so that the slots 24, 26 register with the slide over pins 28 and 30. In this manner all of the perforations or holes 22 become aligned to form the desired channels or tubes. After each sheet is placed over guide pins 28 and 30, a cement such as Coming Glass Company Pyroceram number 89 or solder glass may be applied to the outer boundaries thereof, to cement together adjacent sheets 20 upon the application of heat sufiicient to fuse the cement or solder glass but not hot enough to melt the sheets 20. Of course, the sheets may be fastened together in other suitable ways. Near one or both ends of the array, one or more conductive sheets 32, may be placed between two of the glass sheets 20. Sheets 32 may be of a metallic material such as a thin aluminum film and may have the holes formed therein in a manner similar to the glass sheets 20. A voltage lead 34 may be connected to the conductive sheet and a voltage applied to provide a gate to prevent the flow of electrons. For example, if a high negative potential is applied to the conductive sheet 32, the flow of electrons will be inhibited.
After the stack or array is completed and the individual sheets are cemented to each other or to conductive sheets, the array is subjected to a reducing procedure. Such reduction can be done by heating the array to 325 to 500 degrees centigrade for 8 to 16 hours while flowing one liter per minute of pure hydrogen through the channels of the array. This will provide a resistive surface of the desired characteristics for a particular application of about 100 angstroms units thick.
A conductive coating 36 may be put on the sheet at each of the array with a conductive paint such asa gold or silver paint or by vapor depositing the gold or silver or other conductive material at a steep angle on the sheet ends so that the conductive coating will not form on more than a minimum of the tube or channel interiors.
When this is completed, leads 38, 40 are attached to the conductive coatings and a voltage source 42 is placed therebetween to provide the necessary accelerating field across each tube and provide current for secondary emission form the resistive surfaces on each tube or channel.
Although this invention has been disclosed and illustrated with reference to particular applications, the principles involved are susceptible of numerous other applications which will be apparent to persons skilled in the art. The invention is, therefore, to be limited only as indicated by the scope of the appended claims.
