Multiframe x-ray imaging with a large-area 40ps camera

We have developed a large area short pulse framing camera that is capable of sixteen frames and shutter times of 40 ps per frame. This is accomplished with a high fidelity electrical circuit and a L/D equals 20 microchannel plate, driven by a short pulse (80 ps) high amplitude electrical driver. We show results of this work we have done to support this type of shutter time and the difficulties associated with large area high speed shuttering.
