摘要 |
The present invention relates to a device for the gas-discharge visualisation of an image, wherein said device comprises an electrode which is connected to a high-voltage power supply and is used for generating an electric field. This device also includes a dielectric for isolating the object to be studied from the electrode as well as an optically connected television camera for observing the glow of the gas discharge. The dielectric and the electrode are made of an optically transparent material and the electrode is placed between said dielectric and said television camera. The dielectric may include a light guide in the shape of optical fibres which are arranged so as to be parallel, from their light-receiving end, to the plane on which the object to be studied is placed. The electrode is made in the shape of a metallic mesh. The television camera may include a photo-receptor which is optically connected to the light guide and has a fibre-optic input. This device can be used for instantaneously inputting and processing Kirlian images in a computer due to the improved sensitivity and resolution characteristics of the apparatus, thus improving image quality during a gas-discharge visualisation. |
