Abstract
Photomultiplier quantum sensitivity in the UV region of the photomultiplier s FEU-85, FEU-130 and FEU-140 can be improved by a wave-shifter covering. T he best results were obtained for PMMA-polymethylmetacrylate and P-P' diphe nylstilbene wavelength shifters, (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
