Abstract
A microchannel plate has a platelike photosensitive glass substrate and a plurality of microchannels formed separately from each other and extending across the thickness of the substrate. A secondary electron-emission surface is formed on an inner surface of each of the microchannels. Accelerating electrodes formed on two opposite sides of the photosensitive glass substrate, so as to be partially in electrical contact with the secondary-emission surface. The microchannels are formed by applying ultraviolet rays to the substrate through a mask and removing irradiated portions of the substrate by etching.
