Abstract
An assembly consisting of a deposited meander pattern, sinusoidal mask, and microchannel plate is proposed as an electrooptic device to perform one dimensional Fourier analysis. The sinusoidal mask is shown to modulate a biasing voltage pulse as it traverses the meander pattern. In this paper the MCP gain and signal-to-noise models are combined with signal sampling criteria to obtain constraints on the assembly dimensions and biasing voltages. It is shown that a 0.5 mm square meander, coupled with mask wavelengths of order 10 mm, is sufficient to measure about 10 Fourier components of a 400 psec pulse with peak voltage of order 10 V.
