Charge spectrum XP53X2 at max. gain: 4 x 106 (1500 V) s.p.e. dark rate typ. 5 kHz peak/valley 2.4 charge threshold: 0.25 s.p.e. Pylos, April 2007 H. Löhner - PM studies for multi-PM OM

11 electronic noise / base design

10 stage tube: XP3330 XP3330 at gain: 4 x 106 (1100 V) peak/valley 2.1 Pylos, April 2007 H. Löhner - PM studies for multi-PM OM

13 Temperature dependence of dark rate
XP3330 at gain: 8 x 106 (1200 V) Pylos, April 2007 H. Löhner - PM studies for multi-PM OM

Comparison should be improved Peak/valley Dark Noise (Hz) 150 ideal solution: XP53X2 with 10 stages; can be realized within 10 weeks (Photonis offer) Pylos, April 2007 H. Löhner - PM studies for multi-PM OM

15 H. Löhner - PM studies for multi-PM OM
Summary Test setup for systematic measurements 3” PM XP53X2 sensitive to s.p.e. at maximum gain Peak/valley = 2.4 Position and angle-of-incidence dependence over cathode area within 10 % Time spread over cathode area within 1 ns Time-over-threshold analysis yields 4ns/pC  4ns / s.p.e. Improvement on dark noise: a) voltage-multiplying base for XP53X2 (9 stage) (in progress at NIKHEF, prototype available) b) use 10-stage PM: good results with XP3330 (150 Hz) Ideal and viable solution: XP53X2*(10 stage) Pylos, April 2007 H.
