Abstract: The silicon array pickup tube (silicon vidicon) has been found to have an excellent response to red light superior to that of the lead-oxide tube. The silicon vidicon has been teamed with the lead-oxide tube in a “hybrid” camera with a silicon vidicon in the red channel and lead-oxide tubes in the blue and green channels. The result has been greatly improved color reproduction and camera sensitivity. The development of the silicon vidicon is reviewed and certain advantages including long life and better resolution are discussed.
