ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates in general to methods for making pick-up screens for X-ray image intensifier tubes and, more particularly, to an improved method wherein the X-ray fluorescent phosphor screen element is formed by evaporation of an alkali metal halide material in vacuum and condensing the evaporated material on an X-ray transparent portion of the X-ray intensifier tube, whereby a curved X-ray image pick-up screen is formed which has improved quantum efficiency and resolution. Such improved X-ray image intensifier tubes are especially useful for, but not limited in use to, X-ray systems and for intensifying gamma ray images obtained in applications of nuclear medicine.
