Abstract

Single-electron and time characteristics of a ФЭУ-184U photomultiplier tube with a uviol window are presented. The ФЭУ-184U single-electron resolution can reach a value of ∼63–64%, and, in case of single-electron light-striking of the photocathode, the photoelectron transit time distribution (full width at half maximum) is ∼6 ns.
