Abstract :
Recent progress is described in gaseous photon detectors combining bialkali photocathodes and cascaded patterned gas-avalanche electron multipliers. Efficient avalanche-ion blocking permitted the development and feasibility demonstration of high-gain operation in continuous mode, of gaseous photomultipliers sensitive to single photons in the visible spectral range.
