An intensified solid-state imaging sensor (41) includes a photo cathode (54) for converting light from an image into electrons, an electron multiplying device (53) for receiving electrons from the photo cathode, and a solid-state image sensor (56) including a plurality of pixels for receiving the electrons from the electron multiplying device through a plurality of channels of the electron multiplying device. The solid-state image sensor generates an intensified image signal from the electrons received from the electron multiplying device. The plurality of channels are arranged in a plurality of channel patterns, and the plurality of pixels are arranged in a plurality of pixel patterns. Each of the plurality of channel patterns is mapped to a respective one of the plurality of pixel patterns such that electron signals from each of the plurality of channel patterns is substantially received by the single respective one of the plurality of pixel patterns.

L'invention concerne un capteur d'imagerie d'état solide intensifié (41) comprenant une photocathode (54) pour convertir de la lumière contenant une image en électrons, un dispositif de multiplication d'électrons (53) pour recevoir des électrons provenant de la photocathode, et un capteur d'image d'état solide (56) comprenant une pluralité de pixels pour recevoir les électrons provenant du dispositif de multiplication d'électrons par une pluralité de canaux du dispositif de multiplication d'électrons. Le capteur d'image d'état solide génère un signal d'image intensifié à partir des électrons reçus du dispositif de multiplication d'électrons. La pluralité de canaux est agencée en une pluralité de motifs de canaux, et la pluralité de pixels est agencée en une pluralité de motifs de pixels. Chaque motif de canaux est mappé par rapport à un motif de pixels correspondant, de sorte que les signaux électroniques provenant de chaque motif de canaux soient sensiblement reçus par le motif de pixels correspondant.
