| 摘要 |
A solid state microchannel plate is disclosed comprising a multiplicity of photodetector elements, each using limited gain from a small Geiger mode avalanche and summing the contributions thereof. An array of such multiplicities operates as a pixelated linear or area photodetector. In the preferred embodiment, a multiplicity of passively quenched photodetector elements connect to a common anode, and each photodetector element is passively quenched by its own current-limiting resistor in series with its cathode.
