专利汇可以提供Automatic brightness control for gated micro-channel plate intensifier专利检索，专利查询，专利分析的服务。并且An image intensifier tube is described as including a photocathode element for converting an incident radiation image into a corresponding electron image, a micro-channel plate for multiplying the electron image, and a phosphorous screen for converting the multiplied electron image into a corresponding radiation image to be viewed. The electron image may be turned ''''on'''' and ''''off'''' by selectively applying a gating signal to the photocathode element. A potential applied between the first and second electrodes of the micro-channel plate is varied in accordance with the current absorbed at the second electrode to control the degree of electron multiplication and to prevent saturation of the phosphorous screen. In an illustrative embodiment, a variable potential source coupled to the electrodes of the micro-channel plate, includes a variable oscillator responsive to the current derived from the second electrode and an AC/DC converter for applying a DC potential whose magnitude corresponds to the variable frequency of this oscillator. Significantly, the supply source for the phosphorous screen includes first and second sections, the first section including an AC/DC converter connected to the aforementioned variable oscillator, for providing a variable potential between the second electrode of the micro-channel plate and the phosphorous screen, dependent upon the variable potential applied between the electrodes of the micro-channel plate. The second section includes illustratively a fixed oscillator and a third AC/DC converter whose output is connected to the phosphorous screen.，下面是Automatic brightness control for gated micro-channel plate intensifier专利的具体信息内容。
