The design and operating characteristics of the prototype imaging microchannel plate detector for the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer Satellite are discussed. We show that this detector has achieved high position resolution performance and has low image distortion. In addition, the channel plate scheme used has tight pulse height distributions for UV radiation and displays low dark background counting rates. We also describe work that has been done on EUV filters in relation to the envisaged filter and photocathode complement.
