Abstract

Detection efficiencies and other performance characteristics of ceramic channel electron multipliers (named Ceratron) were examined in the vacuum ultraviolet region. Detection efficiencies of magnetic electron multipliers (Bendix M306) and quantum efficiencies of tungsten and nesa glass were also measured for comparison with those of the Ceratron. The results indicate that the efficiency of the Ceratron is similar to that of the Bendix M306, and about an order of magnitude smaller than that of tungsten.
