    Abstract: An apparatus for generating and focusing electrons is provided. The apparatus has an emissive material configured to emit an electron, an electron target, and an electrical potential gradient generator configured to generate an electrical potential gradient within the emissive material. The electrical potential gradient is oriented so as to vary from positive to negative in the general direction toward the electron target. In operation, an electron emitted from the emissive materials is deflected away from the emissive material and generally toward the electron target. The apparatus may be incorporated in scientific analytical equipment such as an electron multiplier.

    Abstract: A dynode constituting an electron multiplier or a photomultiplier may be provided with eight rows of channels each defined by an outer frame and a partitioning part of the dynode. In each channel, a plurality of electron multiplying holes may be arranged. In specified positions of the outer frame and the partitioning part of the dynode, glass receiving parts wider than the outer frame and the partitioning part may be provided integrally with the dynode. Glass parts may be bonded to all the glass receiving parts. The glass parts may be bonded by applying glass to the glass receiving parts and hardening the glass and each may have a generally dome-like convex shape. Each dynode may be formed after the dome-like glass part may be bonded to the glass receiving part.

    Abstract: An electron multiplier tube including a grid type of plural dynode arrays arranged in a first direction with a multistage structure for successively multiplying electrons incident thereto and an anode provided below the multistage structure of dynode arrays for collecting the multiplied electrons to output an amplified electrical signal, each of the dynode arrays including plural rod-shaped dynode elements arranged in a second direction and a mesh electrode provided over each of the dynode arrays for providing an equipotential, wherein the multistage structure of dynode arrays includes at least one group of neighboring dynode arrays whose dynode elements are arranged so as to be aligned with one another in the first direction without displacement. Each of the dynode elements has a substantially isosceles trapezoid section, both side legs of the trapezoid being slightly inwardly curved to effectively receive the incident electrons which have been emitted from a dynode array at an upper stage.

    Abstract: A photomultiplier tube which is insensitive to high magnetic fields comprises a photocathode deposited on a transparent window at the end of an insulating casing. The multiplier tube comprises a single amplifier stage comprising a dynode. The dynode is a metallic sheet with a circumference substantially surrounding the photocathode. A layer of a secondary emissive material is provided on the inner face of the dynode. An anode is formed of a metallic grid which is homeomorphous to the surface of the dynode. The anode is placed parallel to and at a short distance from the inside surface of the dynode.
