Abstract
A storage target includes a dielectric storage medium in the form of a relatively rigid sheet of insulating material having high density, such as a single crystal sheet of sapphire. A film electrode is formed, as by vapor deposition of nickel or like conductive material, on one of the surfaces of the storage medium. An array of openings are defined by and extend through the storage medium and film electrode. In some embodiments the collector electrode of a direct-view storage tube is formed on the other surface of the storage medium, also as by vapor deposition of nickel and subsequent etching.
Claims8
In a direct-view storage tube, in combination, a dielectric storage medium in the form of a relatively rigid sheet of insulating material having a density coefficient of at least about 0.7, the dielectric storage medium having a first and a second group of parallel spaced grooves formed in its opposite surfaces, the first and the second groups of grooves extending in right angular relationship to each other and forming an array of openings at their crossing points, a film electrode in the form of interconnected strips of conductive material deposited on the surfaces of lands between the first group of grooves in the dielectric storage medium, the dieletric storage medium and the film electrode forming in combination a storage target, and a collector electrode in the form of interconnected strips of conductive material formed on the surfaces of lands between the second group of grooves in the dielectric storage medium.
A storage target for a direct-view storage tube, comprising a storage medium in the form of a relatively rigid sheet of material having a coefficient of density of at least about 0.7, the storage medium having a first and a second group of parallel spaced grooves formed in its opposite surfaces and extending in right angular relationship to each other, there being an array of openings at the crossing points of the first and the second groups of grooves in the storage medium, and a film electrode in the form of interconnected strips of conductive material overlying the surfaces of lands between the first group of grooves in the storage medium.
