A compact and gridless channel plate start detector
Description
A small gridless time detector consisting of an electron emitting foil and two channel plates with central holes and without any grid or wire, i.e. with 100% transmission, is described. For α-particles a time resolution of 90 ps and an efficiency up to a maximum of about 50% have been obtained. The efficiency for heavily ionizing particles like evaporation residues or fission fragments is 100% and with an elastically scattered 26 MeV/amu 32S beam an overall time resolution of 60 ps was achieved.
