High PRF Metal Vapor Brightness Amplifiers: Research and Applications
Authors: , , , , ,
Abstract: The paper presents the experimental and modeling results on obtaining high pulse repetition frequencies (PRF) (more than 100 kHz) of copper bromide vapor brightness amplifiers operating in a low input energy mode. The use of metal vapor brightness amplifiers for visual non-destructive testing of objects and fast processes blocked from observation by the intense background light is also discussed. It has been shown that the imaging method proposed in this paper proves to be the most reliable one for obtaining information about objects or processes in a real time mode using high PRF CuBr active media.
