The Photon-Assisted Cascaded Electron Multiplier: a Concept for Potential Avalanche-Ion Blocking

We present a Photon-Assisted Cascaded Electron Multipliers (PACEM) which has a potential for ion back-flow blocking in gaseous radiation detectors: the avalanche from a first multiplication stage propagates to the successive one via its photons, which in turn induce photoelectron emission from a photocathode deposited on the second multiplier stage; the multiplication process may further contin...

Experimental Determination of the Electron-avalanche and the Electron-ion Recombination Coefficient

The electron-ion recombination coefficient 7 and the avalanche coefficient S = (or -a) ud, where (L and a are the ionization and attachment coefficients respectively and Vd the drift velocity of the electrons, have been experimentally determined in a self-sustained COz-laser system (1: 1:3 mixture) as a function of the E/N value. For low voltages we found the expected decrease of the recombinat...

Efficient ion blocking in gaseous detectors and its application to gas-avalanche photomultipliers sensitive in the visible-light range

A novel concept for ion blocking in gas-avalanche detectors was developed, comprising cascaded micro-hole electron multipliers with patterned electrodes for ion defocusing. This leads to ion blocking at the 10 level, in DC mode, in operation conditions adequate for TPCs and for gaseous photomultipliers. The concept was validated in a cascaded visible-sensitive gas avalanche photomultiplier oper...

Electron Avalanche Statistics

Since the times of the founders of streamer theory — Raether [1], Loeb [2] and Meek [3] — a special attention has been paid to high populated electron avalanches possessing potential to overgrowing into streamers. One of the basic problem that has not been resolved so far concerns anomalous statistical behavior of big avalanches with electron populations n > 10. The mentioned anomaly consists i...

Single electron based binary multipliers with overflow detection

Low power consumption, high operating speed and high integration density equipment(s) are financially indispensable in modern Electronics. Single Electron Device (SED) is one such equipment. Single Electron Devices are capable of controlling the transport of only an electron. A single electron is sufficient to store information in the SED. This paper presents the approach for designing multipli...
