This new dual-cathode technique has the advantage of increasing the VUV sensitive area of the Microstrip Plate. A detailed description of the technique is presented together with a discussion of the performance. The results obtained for a xenon filled Gas Proportional Scintillation Counter show an improvement of the energy resolution for 5.9 keV X-rays from 12.7%, for a single cathode device, to 11.1% for the dual-cathode device | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/12924 | ISSN: | 0018-9499 | DOI: | 10.1109/TNS.2008.2002325 | Rights: | openAccess |
