  1. Development of an Ultrafast Accumulative X-ray Streak Camera Mahendra Shakya , Jinyuan Liu, Bing Shan And Zenghu Chang J.R.Macdonald Laboratory Kansas State University, KS

  2. OBJECTIVE To Design Camera With Resolution 100fs

  3. Motivation • Study of physical process requires fast detector • Auto correlation and Cross correlation require material with efficient non-linear effect.Not applicable for X-ray • X-ray Streak Camera Provides Intensity, Time and Space information

  4. Streak Camera Convert time into space Dt =Dx/v Dx v Dt Film Mirror Slit

  5. Streak Tube Electrostatic Lens Phosphor Screen Slit1 Slit2 Deflection Plate X-ray Signal CCD MCP Anode Cathode Laser Pulse GaAs Switch
