Application of LFS-3 crystals as luminescent screens of picosecond image tubes

It is shown that the LFS-3 crystal installed as a luminescent screen in a picosecond image tube provides the shortest afterglow time in comparisonwith all other fast-damping luminescent screens such as Y 3 Al 5 O 12 :Ce, Y 2 SiO 5 :Ce, and others we previously tested under similar conditions. The LF...

Description
Summary:It is shown that the LFS-3 crystal installed as a luminescent screen in a picosecond image tube provides the shortest afterglow time in comparisonwith all other fast-damping luminescent screens such as Y 3 Al 5 O 12 :Ce, Y 2 SiO 5 :Ce, and others we previously tested under similar conditions. The LFS-3 crystal exposed to single 8-ps pulses of 12–15-keV electrons shows the luminescence decay time no more than 250 ns by the level of 10 -2 of the maximum.
