    Abstract: To reduce the size of a photomultiplier tube (1), a side tube (2) is fixedly secured by welding to a stem plate (4) while an inner surface (2c) of the lower portion (2a) of the side tube (2) is maintained to be in contact with an outer edge (4b) of the stem plate (4). As a result, there is no projection like a flange at the lower portion of the photomultiplier tube (1). Therefore, though it is difficult to perform resistance welding, the outside dimensions of the photomultiplier tube (1) can be decreased, and the side tubes (9) can densely abut to one another even if the photomultiplier tubes (2) are arranged when applied. Hence, high-density arrangement of photomultiplier tubes (1) are realized by assembling metallic stem plate (4) and the side tube (2) by, for example, laser welding.

    Abstract: This invention relates to an electron tube having a structure for enabling a stable operation for a long time. In the electron tube, at least a confining mechanism is arranged between a photocathode and the electron incident surface of a semiconductor device, which are arranged to oppose each other. In the arrangement, the area of the opening of the confining mechanism is at least equal to or smaller than that of the electron incident surface, thereby confining the orbits of photoelectrons from the photocathode. This structure avoids bombardment of electrons arriving at portions other than the electron incident surface of the semiconductor device and prevents the semiconductor device from being unnecessarily charged.

    Abstract: A photomultiplier tube is disclosed having a first dynode array and a second dynode array oriented substantially orthogonal to the first dynode to provide a shortened profile. The first dynode array is preferably a box-and-grid dynode array and the second dynode array is preferably an in-line dynode array. A focusing electrode is positioned between the last dynode of the first dynode array and the first dynode of the second dynode array. The focusing electrode is constructed and arranged to facilitate the transfer of electrons emitted from the first dynode array to the second dynode array without generating secondary electrons.

    Abstract: A photomultiplier includes a cascade of microchannel plates which are physically and electrically connected to provide an electron multiplication through the microchannel cascade. One of the microchannel plates is a high-output microchannel plate providing a high level of electron multiplication. This high output microchannel plate is thermally conducted to ambient by a heat transfer path including outwardly disposed microchannel plates in the cascade. A unitary ceramic housing defines a vacuum envelope for the photomultiplier.

    Abstract: A so-called "solar-blind" photomultiplier tube includes an envelope having a sidewall and an input faceplate formed from an ultraviolet transmitting filter. A photoemissive cathode is disposed within the envelope for providing photoelectrons in response to radiation incident thereon. The cathode has an intrinsic responsivity extending from the near-ultraviolet portion through the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum; however, the filter faceplate transmits only the ultraviolet portion of the spectrum to the photoemissive cathode. The combination of the filter faceplate and the photoemissive cathode therefore limits the tube to a responsivity within the wavelength range of about 300 to less than 400 nanometers.
