  • Abstract
    The application of a transfer technique to the processing of various types of phototubes is described. The advantages of this method are discussed with reference to various classes of tubes. By processing the photocathode separately, it is possible to improve the sensitivity, uniformity, reproducibility and stability with time, and to reduce field emission and dark current of the assembled tube.
