TH9400A ImageConverterIntensifier
The Thomson TH9400A is an image-intensifier tube intended for radioscopic and industrial X-ray imaging. It converts a faint X-ray-generated optical image into photoelectrons, accelerates and focuses them, and produces a brighter image on a fluorescent output screen. The amplified display facilitates low-contrast inspection.
