An image intensifier and electron multiplier therefor is disclosed. Photons of an image impinge a photo-cathode that converts the photons to electrons. An electron multiplier multiplies the electrons from the photo-cathode to create an increased number of electrons. A sensor captures the increased number of electrons to produce an intensified image. The electron multiplier is an electron bombarded device (EBD) containing a semiconductor structure. The semiconductor structure has an input surface for receiving electrons and an emission surface for passing an increased number of electrons. The semiconductor structure is doped to direct the flow of electrons through the semiconductor structure to an emission area on the emission surface.
