    摘要: Information is stored, erased and read in an electronluminescent phosphor by electron beams of respectively medium, high and low intensity. The medium intensity beam produces radiation damage in the phosphor which quenches its subsequent luminescence when irradiated with the reading low-intensity beam. The high-intensity beam heats the crystal and anneals out damaged areas thus restoring full (or nearly full) luminescence under the reading beam. In application to a storage tube the whole of the phosphor surface can be made to luminesce (with bright and quenched regions according to the information ''''written'''' in) by flooding the whole surface with ultraviolet light.

    摘要: An improved scan-conversion device is provided in the form of a combination of two separate cathode-ray tube sections utilizing a common faceplate portion therebetween. A method of fabrication embodies peripherally sealing an envelope funnel to a first surface of the common faceplate, whereupon a cathodoluminescent screen is formed. Upon positioning and sealing an electron gun in the funnel portion of the first envelope, the envelope is evacuated, sealed and processed to provide a display-forming section. A target electrode is then formed on the outer surface of the common faceplate, and a second envelope funnel, having an electron gun positioned and sealed therein, is peripherally bonded thereto; whereupon the second envelope is evacuated, sealed and processed to provide a display-reading section oriented to directly cooperate with the display-forming section.

    摘要: Alternative systems are disclosed for enhancing the signal-tonoise ratio in a signal storage tube. The intensity of the write beam is amplitude-modulated and it sweeps the target in a vertical raster. The read beam has a constant intensity and sweeps the target in a horizontal raster. In one embodiment, the video signal for one of a predetermined number of write lines is inverted and stored on the target in this inverted form thus translating the frequency band of the read signal to a higher value and out of the frequency range of noise caused by the physical characteristics of the target and the collection optics. In a second embodiment, a signal representative of the background noise is generated and subtracted from the output signal.
