Abstract
An object of this invention is to provide an imaging device which can output distinct images which are not blurred. According to this invention, photoelectrons emitted from a photocathode (2) during a gate period in which a low potential change is given to the photocathode have set energy different from that of photoelectrons during the other period, and are incident on an energy filter (9). Only photoelectrons of the set energy pass through the energy filter (9). The photoelectrons which have passed through the energy filter during a gate period advance to an output surface (3).
