title: Intensity dependent time-resolution and dynamic range of Photochron picosecond streak-cameras.
abstract: The dynamic range of operation of Photochron I and Photochron II picosecond streak cameras is shown to depend upon the time-resolution employed. For events approximately 2 ps a useful dynamic range of 30 is obtainable, and this increases to a value of 180 for 30-ps events. No accumulative saturation effects occur at a time resolution as short as 2 ps.
