Function of MCPs and Streak Tubes
In plasma research, every nanosecond — even every picosecond — can reveal critical physics. To truly understand plasma behavior, researchers rely on Microchannel Plates (MCPs) and Streak Tubes from Photonis, key technologies for ultrafast diagnostics and imaging. MCPs amplify faint photon signals, enabling: • XUV and soft X-ray spectroscopy • Sub-nanosecond plasma imaging • High-sensitivity time-of-flight … Continue reading
Optimizing Optical Filter Components for Subassemblies
Over-specification of optical filters is a common challenge in system design. Requirements that exceed what the application truly needs can add cost, introduce complexity, and extend lead times. A whitepaper from Chroma Technology, entitled “Optimizing Optical Filter Components for Subassemblies,” remains a valuable technical reference for teams working to balance performance goals with practical manufacturing … Continue reading
