The image intensifier mainly produced in China at present is a super-second generation image intensifier, and the structure of the image intensifier comprises a photocathode, a microchannel plate, a fluorescent screen and the like.
The photoelectric cathode can generate an external photoelectric effect, and when a weak light image is incident on the super-second-generation image intensifier, the excited state can be achieved and photoelectrons are emitted. Photoelectrons reach the microchannel plate under the action of field confinement. The microchannel plate plays a role in electron amplification, and can achieve an enhancement effect through multiplication of photoelectrons.
The photocathode and the microchannel plate of the super-second generation image intensifier are planes, and proximity focusing is realized by reducing the distance between the photocathode and the microchannel plate. For the close-proximity focusing mode, the smaller the spacing, the better the electron focusing. Therefore, the control of the cathode proximity distance plays a crucial role in the performance influence of the micro-light image intensifier.
At present, in the aspect of controlling the cathode close-proximity focusing distance of the super-second generation image intensifier, the problems of insufficient control stability of the cathode close-proximity distance, poor control of parallelism of a photocathode and a microchannel plate and the like exist, and the production and the application of the super-second generation image intensifier are seriously restricted.

Firstly, turning an A surface of an assembly ring by taking a B surface of the assembly ring in the super-second generation image intensifier tube shell structure as a reference. And secondly, turning the improved cathode flange boss by taking the surface A of the assembling ring as a reference.
