The invention relates to a large-area X-
ray pulse detection device based on microchannel plate split joint. The large-area X-
ray pulse detection device comprises an X-
ray photoelectric
cathode, a first insulating layer, a microchannel plate (MCP) input
electrode press ring, a second insulating layer, an MCP input
electrode, a first MCP layer, an intermediate
electrode, a second MCP layer, a third insulating layer, an MCP output electrode, a fourth insulating layer, and an
anode which are sequentially stacked up, wherein the first MCP layer and the second MCP layer are both large-area MCP detectors, and each MCP
detector comprises a
detector body, a split-joint framework and a
processing circuit. The large-area X-ray pulse detection device resolves the technical problems that an existing MCP
detector is adopted to detect the X-ray pulse, extremely long
observation time is needed, and detection efficiency of the whole
system is low, a detection method and a device which are high in detection efficiency are provided for an X-ray
pulsar navigation system,
photon measurement information with high
time resolution and high time accuracy is provided for X-ray
pulsar navigation, and guarantee is provided for high precision of navigation positioning.
