Microchannel Plate, Preparation Method and Application Thereof

原文（中文）

The present invention provides a microchannel plate, a preparation method and application thereof, where the microchannel plate is provided with a large number of channels penetrating in the thickness direction. On one side of an inlet end face of the microchannel plate, a flared end face of each channel is a hexagonal tapered bore; and in a cross-section perpendicular to an axial direction of each channel, the flared end face of the channel has an outer edge that is hexagonal and an inner edge that is circular. The present invention proposes a hexagonal special-shaped flared microchannel plate with an array of micropores having hexagonal tapered bores in the end face and cylindrical inside, where the circles in the form of a hexagonal packed periodic array is replaced with the hexagons in the form of a hexagonal close-packed periodic array, so that the close-packed coefficient of the channel array of the microchannel plate increases from 0.907 when the existing circular channels are arranged in a hexagonal manner to 1 when the hexagonal channels are arranged in a hexagonal manner, so that when the flared end face channel wall thickness of the channel of the microchannel plate is ≥100 nm, an open area ratio of the microchannel plate is ≥91%. The present invention significantly improves the open area ratio of the input surface of the microchannel plate, improves the detection efficiency of the microchannel plate for an input signal, while avoiding generation of a flared tip to cause a tip discharge, and thus is more suitable for practical use.
