Scientific paper

The image distortion in microchannel plate detectors caused by the nonconstant curvature of the channels has been investigated experimentally using extreme-ultraviolet spectroscopy. A typical C plate with 25-micron-diameter pores is found to have a + or - 25-micron image distortion across the plate. Calibration of the image distortion improves the spectral line positions by a factor of 4, permitting solar-emission-line Doppler shift determination of + or - 2 microns (+ or - 1 km/s).
