ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an electron multiplier unit and others enabling cascade multiplication of electrons through successive emission of secondary electrons in multiple stages in response to incidence of primary electrons. The electron multiplier unit has a first support member provided with an inlet aperture for letting primary electrons in, and a second support member located so as to face the first support member. These first and second support members hold an electron multiplication section for the cascade multiplication and an anode. The electron multiplication section is comprised of at least a first dynode of a box type and a second dynode having a reflection type secondary electron emission surface located so as to face the first dynode and arranged to receive secondary electrons from the first dynode and to emit secondary electrons to a side where the first dynode is located. The anode is located at a position where the secondary electrons emitted from the first dynode do not directly arrive, and the second dynode alters a travel path of secondary electrons so as to be kept in a space between the first and second support members.
