Electron Multipliers
OVERVIEW
Electron multipliers (also called ion multipliers) are specially designed for the detection and measurement of electrons, charged particles such as ions, VUV radiations and soft X-rays. Hamamatsu electron multipliers have high gain and low noise, making them suitable for the detection of very small or low energy particles by using the counting method. They are well suited for mass spectroscopy, field ion microscopy, and electron or VUV spectroscopy such as Auger spectroscopy, AES and ESCA.
Each type has Cu-BeO dynodes connected by built-in divider resistors (1M ohm per stage) and is supplied in an evacuated glass bulb. The first dynode can be replaced by a photocathode of Cs-I, K-Br, etc. for use in VUV photometry.
