TELEVISION CAMERA TUBES An electron tube use a light-sensitive
material/receptor that converts an optical image into an electrical television video signal.
The tube is used in a television camera to generate a train of electrical pulses representing the light intensities present in an optical image focused on the tube.
Each point of this image is interrogated in its proper turn by the beam in tube , and an electrical signal corresponding to the amount of light at that point of the optical image is generated by the tube. This signal represents the video or picture portion of a television signal. Akshay Jilowa GPCG Jalandhar Punjab EDUSAT Society

BASIC PRINCIPLE Photoconductive effect Photoemission effect

Photoemission principle Certain metals emit electrons when light falls on
their surface. These emitted electrons are called
photoelectrons and the emitting surface a photocathode.
Light consists of small bundles of energy called photons.
When light incident on a photocathode ,the photons give away their energy to the outer valence electrons to allow them to overcome the potential energy barrier at the surface.

7
The number of electrons which can overcome the potential barrier and get emitted ,depend on the light.
Alkali metal are used as photocathode because they have very low work function.
Cesium silver / bismuth silver cesium oxides are preferred as cathode surface because they are sensitive to incandescent light and have spectral response very close to the human eye.

Photoconductive principle
In some metal , when light photon fall on it then its conductivity / resistivity change.
Semiconductor metals like selenium, tellurium and lead with their oxide have this property known as photoconductivity.
The variation of resistance at each point across the surface of the material is utilized to develop a varying signal by scanning it uniformly with an electron beam.

Image section Glass plate : coated with Silver-antimony serve
as photocathode Lens assembly : light from the scene to be
televised is focused on the photocathode surface by lens system
Photocathode surface is semitransparent and light rays penetrate it to reach its inner surface where electron emission takes place .
Target plate : when electron emit from cathode ,it can not store charge being a conductor .

For this reason the electron image is made to move towards the target plate located at short distance from it.
The target plate is made of a very thin sheet of glass and can store charge received by it. This is maintained at about 400v more +ve w.r.t photocathode
When electron move from cathode to target plate there is chance that it may repel each other ,this can result in distortion of the information available as charge image.

To prevent this divergence effect an axial magnetic field generated by focus is employed
This magnetic field impart helical motion to electrons and focus them on target plate .
The image side of target plate has coating of cesium that emit secondary electron.these secondary electron is collected by wire mesh which is located at front of target plate .
The +ve charge appeared on target plate is proportional to light intensity distribution on photocathode

Application of vidicon Close circuit TV system Earlier type of vidicon were used
only where there was no fast movement , because of inherent lag

Plumbicon Camera Tube
lower image lag.
It has fast response and produce high quality pictures at low light level.
It has small size and light weight and has low power operating characteristics .
It is similar to vidicon tube except small change in target plate

Plan of a colour television camera showing generation of colour signals and Y matrix for obtaining the luminance (brightness) signal.
Akshay Jilowa GPCG Jalandhar Punjab EDUSAT Society
Figure shows a simple block schematic of a colour TV camera.
It essentially consists of three camera tubes in which each tube receives selectively filtered primary colours.
Each camera tube develops a signal voltage proportional to the respective colour intensity received by it.

Light from the scene is processed by the objective lens system.
The image formed by the lens is split into three images by means of glass prisms.
These prisms are designed as diachroic mirrors.
A diachroic mirror passes one wavelength and rejects other wavelengths (colours of light).
Thus red, green, and blue colour images are formed.
29Akshay Jilowa GPCG Jalandhar Punjab EDUSAT Society
The rays from each of the light splitters also pass through colour filters called trimming filters.
These filters provide highly precise primary colour images which are converted into video signals by image-orthicon or vidicon
camera tubes. Thus the three colour signals are
generated. These are called Red (R), Green (G) and Blue (B) signals.
