Properties of CsI and CsI-TMAE photocathodes
- 1. Fermi National Accelerator Lab., Batavia, IL (United States)
- 2. Universidad San Francisco de Quito (Ecuador)
Description
The importance of heating the CsI or CsI-TMAE photocathodes during preparation, as well as the importance of the gas environment on the quantum efficiency is presented. The dependence of the aging characteristics of these photocathodes on the operating temperature, on the presence of gas, and on the charge amplification of the chamber is also discussed. For CsI photocathodes charges in excess of 2x1014 e-/mm2 can be collected with little degradation of performance. A timing resolution of 0.55 ns is also achieved for single photoelectrons suggesting a possible time-of-flight detector
