Abstract: A vacuum vessel is configured by hermetically joining a faceplate to one end of a side tube and a stem to the other end via a tubular member. A photocathode, a focusing electrode, dynodes, a drawing electrode, and anodes are arranged within the vacuum vessel. At the center of the stem an air discharging tube is connected. The air discharging tube includes an outer side tube and an inner side tube, which are disposed coaxially and connected to each other at the stem side. The outer side tube has high adhesiveness with the stem and the inner side tube is thin and has small stress when being cut, thereby enabling the joint with the vacuum vessel not to be damaged when the air discharging tube is sealed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a photomultiplier that realizes significant improvement of response time properties with a structure enabling mass production. The photomultiplier comprises a sealed container, and the sealed container includes a hollow body section, extending along a tube axis, and a faceplate. The faceplate has a light incidence surface and a light emission surface on which a photocathode is formed. In particular, the light emission surface is constituted by a flat region, and a curved-surface processed region that is positioned at a periphery of the flat region and that includes edges of the light emission surface. A surface shape of the peripheral region of the light emission surface of the faceplate is thus intentionally changed in order to adjust the angles of emission of photoelectrons from the photocathode positioned at the peripheral region. Thus, the spread of transit times of photoelectrons propagating from the photocathode to a first dynode is thus reduced effectively and made not to depend on the emission positions of the photoelectrons.

The radius of curvature of rounded corners of the tube head is smaller than the radius of curvature of rounded corners of the tube main body. The length of the tube head along the tube axis is shorter than the length of the tube main body along the tube axis. One surface of a faceplate is connected to the tube head. A photocathode is formed on the surface of the faceplate in its area located inside the tube head.

Abstract: In a photomultiplier, a ring-like side tube is not interposed between a side tube and a stem in the radial direction, and the side tube is joined to the ring-like side tube in a state of being directly capped onto a portion of the stem that protrudes out from an open end face at the upper side of the ring-like side tube. The enlargement of the photomultiplier in the radial direction due to overlapping of the side tube and the ring-like side tube can thereby be restricted and a high density, a high degree of integration, etc., can be realized in mounting the photomultiplier.

Abstract: A holding member or a base member, through which stem pins are passed and one surface of which is held by the holding member, is joined to the stem pins and the holding member by fusion by the melting of the base member. Upon melting, a volume of the base member is made to escape into a base member seep portion, and a stem is arranged as a two-layer arrangement formed by the holding of the base member by the holding member. When the holding member is joined to the inner surface of the base member, the inner surface of the stem is improved in positional precision, flatness, and levelness, while when the holding member is joined to the outer surface of the base member, the outer surface of the stem is improved in positional precision, flatness, and levelness.

Abstract: In a photomultiplier, focusing pieces of a focusing electrode are formed with sufficient height that the photocathode in the adjacent channels cannot be viewed from the first and second stage dynodes of each channel in order to prevent light reflected from the first and second stage dynodes from returning to the adjacent channels. This construction prevents the photocathode from emitting undesired electrons, thereby suppressing crosstalk. Further, by arranging condensing lenses on the outer surface of a light-receiving faceplate in correspondence with each channel, light is reliably condensed in each channel. Further, an oxide film formed over the surface of the focusing pieces prevents the reflection of light off the focusing pieces.
