Abstract
The entrance ends of a plurality of optical fibers are arranged in a circular array and each provided with light emitting material in the form of phosphor responsive to impingement of an electron beam. The circular array of the fiber optic entrance ends is scanned by an electron beam so that the light emitters are successively triggered, the time for light to travel the difference between successive light paths defined by the optical fibers corresponding to the time of scan from one light emitting phosphor to the next adjacent light emitting phosphor so that individual pulses of light exit from the ends of said fibers substantially simultaneously.
