Afterpulse time-spectrum measurement of RCA 8850 photomultiplier
Abstract
The photomultiplier dark pulse height, signal induced pulse height, and afterpulse time spectra have been measured on three RCA 8850 52 mm diameter photomultipliers. The first dynode of this photomultiplier has a cesium activated, gallium phosphide secondary emitting surface. Measurement techniques and the measuring systems are described in detail.
