Crosstalk Of The Streak Camera

The mechanism of the occurrence of the crosstalk in the streak camera has been experimentally investigated. The results have shown that the main causes are the light scattering from the accelerating electrode in the streak tube, the electron scattering between the MCP output face and the phosphor screen and the light scattering in the output glass window. Basing on the results, the improvement has been tried for above each item and good results are being obtained.
