摘要
The quantum efficiencies (QEs) of several VUV sensitive photon detectors were determined and compared with each other. We tested the following photomultiplier tubes (PMTs): five Philips XP2020Qs, one Hamamatsu R2059, and one Thorn EMI 9426. We also tested a Na-salicylate coated glass window combined with a Philips XP2020 PMT. At wavelengths smaller than 230 nm, the QEs of both the Thorn EMI and Philips PMTs appear significantly better than the QE of the Hamamatsu PMT. Furthermore, at these wavelengths, the QE of the XP2020Q PMTs was found to be much higher than advertised in the manufacturers catalogues.
