Abstract (en)
The present invention provides a glass packing tube (550) for use in fabricating a microchannel plate. The glass tube has a plurality of flat inner surfaces (501-512) and is used to form a boule including a plurality of optical fibers located in the tube (16) and a plurality of support rods (24) between the first optical fibers and the flat surfaces whereby the tubes, fibers and rods are fused together with reduced glass flow.
