ABSTRACT:
Output current hysteresis exhibited by a multiple-dynode photomultiplier detector is reduced by inactivating one or more of the dynodes by shorting to the detector anode, and operating the detector with the reduced number of active dynodes while retaining the anode as the output current supply terminal.
