摘要：

UV-photons are detected by a low-pressure photosensitive multistep gaseous detector. Photoelectrons are multiplied in two charge amplification stages. A third, light amplification stage operating in a scintillation mode, provides light yields > 5×107 visible photons per single photoelectron avalanche, in ArC2H6-TMAE gas mixtures. We present results on absolute photon yields in various TMAE gas mixtures, at low gas pressures and at low charge gains. We describe the operation mechanism and some basic properties of the gated 3-stage detectors, such as stability of operation at high background rates and localization resolution, particularly at large TMAE concentration and high temperature operation conditions. Further applications are discussed. © 1990.
