  • Abstract
    Characteristics of the prototype RCA C83036E 52 mm diameter photomultiplier have been measured. The results of the measurements of the gain, dark current, photocathode quantum efficiency, peak output current, electron transit time, and output pulse rise time as a function of voltage between anode and cathode are given. Furthermore, single photoelectron time spread, multiphotoelectron time resolution, pulse-height spectrum and afterpulse time spectrum were measured and are discussed.
