Abstract
We describe simple methods of manufacturing in a laboratory gaseous de tectors of visible photons with GaAs(Cs) and SbCs photocathodes and Ti getters. Covered by CsI protective layers they are robust enough to b e stable under ordinary experimental conditions. First attempts to use these detectors for crystal scintillator and fiber readout are presen ted.
