ABSTRACT:
A streak tube comprising an envelope having therein a photocathode surface, a mesh electrode, a focusing electrode, an aperture electrode, a deflection electrode and a phosphor screen positioned along the longitudinal axis of the envelope in the given order. The axis connects the photocathode surface and the phosphor screen which face each other. The photocathode is formed on a concave surface at one end of the envelope, the distance between the photocathode surface and the mesh electrode being greatest at the axis of the envelope and gradually decreasing toward its periphery. Electrons emitted from any position on the photocathode surface at a given instant enter simultaneously into the deflection field formed by the deflection electrode.
