Abstract

See full text

An element with elongated, high aspect ratio channels such as microchannel plate is fabricated by electrochemical etching of a p-type silicon element in a electrolyte to form channels extending through the element. The electrolyte may be an aqueous electrolyte. For use as a microchannel plate, the; the silicon surfaces of the channels can be converted to insulating silicon dioxide, and a dynode material with a high electron emissivity can be deposited onto the insulating surfaces of the channels. New dynode materials are also disclosed.
