Notes:
The picosecond electrical pulse-propagation characteristics of microchannel-plate detectors, used in diagnosing laser-driven inertial-confinement-fusion experiments, were measured with an electro-optic sampling system. We determined propagation velocity and signal distortion of the microchannel-plate microstrip, as well as its characteristic impedance and the substrate relative dielectric permittivity. These parameters are critical for proper calibration of the detectors and serve as a guide for their improved designs.
