Electron multiplier

A microchannel plate (MCP) is used to detect single particles (electrons, ions and neutrons[1]) and photons (ultraviolet radiation and X-rays). It is closely related to an electron multiplier, as both intensify single particles or photons by the multiplication of electrons via secondary emission.[2] Because a microchannel plate detector has many separate channels, it can provide spatial resolution.
