Photomultiplier Tubes

What is a Photomultiplier Tube (PMT)?

PMTs are vacuum tube photodetectors that provide ultra-fast time response to optical signals from deep ultraviolet through near infrared. When using microchannel plates they can provide gains of over 10⁷ with instantaneous current output of over 1 A.

Benefits of Photomultiplier Tubes

Customizable for optimal performance in a wide variety of applications. Explore our range below and contact us to discuss your exact requirements.

Feature Highlights

Wide Range of Photocathode Options

Wide range of photocathode options, including solar-blind types matched to your wavelength of interest. Different underlayer options are also available to improve conductivity, helping maintain performance in high-speed, high-dynamic-range applications where fast response and signal quality matter.

Flexible Readout

Versions are available with multiple anodes to provide coarse spatial or spectral information.

Photodiodes

Detection of ultra-fast phenomena with wide dynamic range

A Photodiode is a device for detecting ultra-fast optical events. It generates an electrical output when illuminated by light and has no internal gain but can work over a large dynamic range.

Features

Optimized anode assembly provides ultra fast response down to 50 ps risetime
Large dynamic range
Active diameters of 10 mm, 25 mm and 40 mm
