摘要:
The present invention relates to an electron multiplier and others to effectively suppress luminescence noise, even in compact size, in which each of multistage dynodes has a plurality of columns each having a peripheral surface separated physically, and in which each column is processed in such a shape that an area or a peripheral length of a section parallel to an installation surface on which the electron multiplier is arranged becomes minimum at a certain position on the peripheral surface in the column of interest.

The photomultiplier tube 1 is provided with an upper frame 2 and a lower frame 4 which are arranged so as to oppose each other, with the respective opposing surfaces 20a, 40a made with an insulating material, a side wall part 3 which constitutes a casing together with the frames 2, 4, a plurality of stages of electron multiplying parts 33 which are arrayed so as to be spaced away sequentially from a first end side to a second end side on the opposing surface 40a of the lower frame 4, a photocathode 41 which is installed on the first end side so as to be spaced away from the electron multiplying parts 33, converting incident light from outside to photoelectrons, an anode part 34 which is installed on the second end side so as to be spaced away from the electron multiplying parts 33 to take out electrons multiplied by the electron multiplying parts 33 as a signal, and a wall-like electrode 32 which is arranged so as to enclose the photocathode 41 when viewed from a direction directly opposite to an opposing surface 401 and having a notched part 35 at a site opposing the electron multiplying parts 33 on the second end side.

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. The tubular member is disposed on the periphery of the stem, and supporting pins and lead pins penetrate and are fixed to an extending section that protrudes from the tubular member. The supporting pins and the lead pins are arranged in cutout portions of the dynodes and the drawing electrode, thereby allowing effective areas of each electrode to be enlarged. Further, protuberant sections are formed on the connecting sections of each pin with the stem, thereby facilitating thickness control of the stem.

The present invention relates to a manufacturing method of obtaining a photoelectric converting device which can sufficiently maintain airtightness of a housing space for photocathode without degradation of the characteristics of the photocathode. In accordance with the manufacturing method, on the side wall end face of a lower frame and a bonding portion of an upper frame forming an envelope of the photoelectric converting device, a multilayered metal film of chromium and nickel is formed. In a vacuum space decompressed to a predetermined degree of vacuum and having a temperature not more than the melting point of indium, these upper and lower frames introduced therein are brought into close contact with each other with a predetermined pressure while sandwiching indium wire members, and accordingly, an envelope having a housing space whose airtightness is sufficiently maintained is obtained.

A vacuum vessel is configured by hermetically joining a faceplate (13) to one end of a side tube (15) and a stem (29) to the other end via a tubular member (31). A photocathode (14), a focusing electrode (17), dynodes (Dy1-Dy12), a drawing electrode (19), and anodes (25) are arranged within the vacuum vessel. At the center of the stem (29) an air discharging tube (40) is connected. The air discharging tube (40) includes an outer side tube (41) and an inner side tube (43), which are disposed coaxially and connected to each other at the stem (29) side. The outer side tube (41) has high adhesiveness with the stem (29) and the inner side tube (43) 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 (40) is sealed.

The edges of portions of a base member that are joined to stem pins are arranged as bottom surfaces of recesses formed in the stem so that the stem pins are joined to the base member at gradual angles and so that even when a bending force acts on the stem pins, the stem pins will contact the peripheral portions at the open sides of the recesses, thereby preventing further bending of the stem pins and preventing the forming of cracks at both sides of the portions at which the stem pins are joined to the base member. Furthermore, triple junctions, at which the conductive stem pins, the insulating base member to which the stem pins are joined, and vacuum intersect, are positioned inside the recesses and put in concealed-like states.

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.

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.

A photomultiplier tube enhanced in simplicity and flexibility of mounting, a photomultiplier tube unit enhanced in photomultiplier tube assembling efficiency when unitized, and a radiation detector enhanced in assembling efficiency for a plurality of photomultiplier tubes. The photomultiplier tube (1) has a hermetically sealed vessel (5) easily screw-fixed in a predetermined position due to screwing means (30) provided in the stem plate (4). As a result, the photomultiplier tube (1) can be very easily attached or detached so that even an unskilled person can mount the photomultiplier tube (1) easily and accurately in a predetermined position by screwing.
