Abstract
In this paper a simple design of a gaseous photomultiplier, sensitive up to
visible light, is described. It consists of a parallel plate chamber combi
ned with a solid photocathode through a capillary plate, which works in a t
ransmission mode and serves to suppress photon feedback. Ion feedback was m
inimized through the optimization of the gas mixture. A gain > 10(3) was ac
hieved. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
