(author)In this work we demonstrate that ultra-thin (5 and 15 nm) MgO transmission dynodes with sufficient high transmission electron yield (TEY) can be constructed. These transmission dynodes act as electron amplification stages in a novel vacuum electron multiplier: the Timed Photon Counter. The ultra-thin membranes with a diameter of 30 μm are...journal article 2023

Prodanovic, V. (author), Chan, H.W. (author), Smedley, J. (author), Theulings, A. (author), Tao, S. (author), Van der Graaf, H. (author), Sarro, P.M. (author)The excellent overall properties of silicon nitride, particularly its mechanical strength and resistance to many etchants, make it a widely used material for microsensors and microactuators. In this paper silicon-rich silicon nitride (SRN) films were investigated as material for ultra-thin transmission dynodes in electron multiplication. These...journal article 2015
