Scientific paper

A new use for a 2-dimensional position sensitive diode (PSD) is described. A duolateral PSD was used with a microchannel plate image intensifier as a proof-of-concept photon counting (event driven) imager for astronomical imaging and photometry. This produced an imager capable of counting 25-30 kcps over the astronomical bands B, V & R, with an overall efficiency of ~19%.
