“…In order to take X-ray topographs so rapidly that imperfections in crystals may be observed almost in real time, two kinds of techniques have been developed so far: one is to use the intense X-ray source and a vidicon tube with good resolution (Chikawa & Fujimoto, 1968;Chester & Koch, 1969;Rozgonyi, Haszko & Statile, 1970;Chikawa, Fujimoto & Abe, 1972;Chikawa, 1974), and the other is to use a usual source but make the detecting system sensitive with various kinds of image intensifying tubes, where electron scanning is used (Reifsnider & Green, 1968;Lang & Reifsnider, 1969;Meieran, Landre & O'Hara, 1969;Meieran, 1971;Hashizume, Kohra, Yamaguchi & Kinoshita, 1971 ;Kozaki, Hashizume & Kohra, 1972).…”
