摘要：

We discuss the idea of a vacuum or gaseous photomultiplier with a CsI-coated wife photocathode. It benefits from an electric field enhanced quantum efficiency. We present a method for protecting air-sensitive photocathodes with thin dielectric film coating. Results of CsI coated with thin LIF and MgF2 films are shown. The protection of other UV and visible photocathodes is discussed.
