Picosecond Electronic Framing Camera

The operating principle of a new picosecond electronic framing camera has been experimentally verified using a trial tube which can obtain one frame image on the output screen. In one mode, sinusoidal wave voltage of the frequency of u 86 MHz has been applied to a deflection plate of the tube similar to synchroscan streak tube. The exposure time of ~ lns has been obtained. In the other mode, push-pull ramp voltage has been applied to a pair of deflection plates. In this case, the exposure time of % 110 ps has been attained.
