NOTES
A: Averaged over any interval of 30 seconds maximum.
B: The light source is a tungsten filament lamp operated at a
distribution temperature of 2856K. Supply voltage is 100 volts
between the cathode and all other electrodes connected together
as anode.
C: The value is cathode output current when a blue filter(Corning
CS-5-58 polished to 1/2 stock thickness) is interposed
between the light source and the tube under the same condition
as Note B.
D: Measured with the same light source as Note B and with the
voltage distribution ratio shown in Table 1 below.
Table 1:Voltage Distribution Ratio
G:The rise time is the time for the output pulse to rise from 10%
to 90% of the peak amplitude when the entire photocathode is
illuminated by a delta function light pulse.
H: The electron transit time is the interval between the arrival of
delta function light pulse at the entrance window of the tube and
the time when the anode output reaches the peak amplitube. In
measurement, the whole photocathode is illuminated.
J: Also called transit time jitter. This is the fluctuation in electron
transit time between individual pulses in the single photoelectron
mode, and may be defined as the FWHM of the frequency
distribution of electron transit times.
K: Hysteresis is temporary instability in anode current after light and
voltage are applied.

E: Measured with the same supply voltage and voltage distribution

ratio of unity in the output of a photomultiplier tube.

(1)Current Hysteresis
The tube is operated at 750 volts with an anode current of 1 micro-
ampere for 5 minutes. The light is then removed from the tube for a
minute. The tube is then re-illuminated by the previous light level
for a minute to measure the variation.
(2)Voltage Hysteresis
The tube is operated at 300 volts with an anode current of 0.1 micro
-ampere for 5 minutes. The light is then removed from the tube and
the supply voltage is quickly increased to 800 volts. After a minute,
the supply voltage is then reduced to the previous value and the
tube is re-illuminated for a minute to measure the variation.
