Abstract
Mating faces of a microchannel plate (MCP) () and a multi-layer ceramic body () unit are deposited with a thin film having protuberances () using a suitable metal selected for optimum diffusion at a desired temperatures and pressure. The metallized MCP () and multi-layer ceramic body () unit are then aligned and placed in a bonding fixture (F) that provides the necessary force applied to the components to initiate a diffusion bond at a desired elevated temperature. The bonding fixture (F) is then placed in a vacuum heat chamber (V) to accelerate the diffusion bonding process between the MCP () and the multi-layer ceramic body unit ().
