Abstract: For some years people have used image converter tubes for high-speed photography.<sup>1-21</sup> An image converter tube will operate as an electronic shutter if the accelerating voltage is applied as a pulse of short duration. Equally, the image converter tube can be used as a streak camera by adding a time base and sweeping a slit image across the screen.
