Abstract The channel electron multiplier arrays (CEMAs), also known as microchannel plates (MCPs) are parallel arrays of many thousands of single eleetron multiplier channels made with special type glass. MCPs are versatile detectors of ions, electrons and photons, providing a large active area of high gain and uniformity.In this paper, the principle of fundamental operation of the MCP is described briefly. Major process of production of MCPs is presented. Fundamental characteristics and applieations of MCP are discussed briefly.
