Abstract

In this paper, the principle of the synchroscan streak camera will be discussed based on the Bernuli Theorem, and its equation of detection and the minimum detectable threshould of input light power density will be derived according to the theorem of noise. The limited time resolution of this kind of camera will be dealt with in terms of the method of probability and mathmetical statistics theoretically and it will be estimated with Monte Carlo method accurately. According to above theoretical analysis, the relevant parameter relationship of this kind of camera will be established quantitatively, which will show how to improve the performances of this camera effectively. The calculation results will show that its minimum detectable threshould of input light power density is in the order of 10-12w/mm2 and that its limited time resolution can be better than that of the single-shot streak camera by improvements of stabilities of the CPM laser system and its relevant streak circuits.
