Abstract

If there is fatigue for an image intensifier, then it has an effect on the imaging property of night vision system. Ill this paper, using the principle of Joule Heat, we derive a mathematical formula for the generated heat of semiconductor photocathode. And we describe the relationship among the various parameters in the formula. e also discuss reasons for the fatigue of generation II image intensifier caused by bigger input illumination. Keywords: fatigue, image intensifier. input illumination.
