摘要:
A multi-digit luminescence display tube comprises an anode assembly including a plurality of luminescent anode segments for each digit, a cathode, a plurality of grids disposed between the cathode and the anode segments of the respective digits, structure for supplying first voltages to the grids and to at least a selected one of the anode segments to make the same luminesce, and apparatus for superposing a second voltage on the first voltage supplied to at least a selected one of the grids to suppress luminescence at the anode segments covered thereby. The cathode comprises a common filament for the anode segments of all digits. Structure is provided for rendering the second voltage non-negative without adversely affecting the brightness of the selected anode segment which are not covered by the selected grid.
摘要:
A method for producing multi-figure luminescent display tubes comprising a step of baking a frit glass for fixing parts such as grid electrodes and filament supports onto a substrate which is provided with segment electrodes having phosphor layers applied thereon. The baking process is carried out in a non-oxidizing environment and an infrared heater is used prior to baking to eliminate the frit binder.
摘要:
An apparatus for a detecting the location of incident radiation comprises at least one pair of assembly comprised of a scintillation crystal consisting of a plurality of crystal segments, a pair of photo-multiplier tubes optically coupled to the scintillation crystal so as to be able to detect a scintillation produced in any one of these crystal segments. These plural crystal segments are coupled to each other in such manner that any scintillation produced in any single crystal segment will cause the photo-multiplier tubes to deliver substantially a same output irrespective of the illuminating position within this crystal segment, and also that scintillations produced in the respective crystal segments will cause the photo-multiplier tubes to deliver outputs which are different in level for the respective crystal segments.
