ABSTRACT:
A photomultiplier tube comprises an evacuated envelope having a photoemissive cathode formed on an interior surface of the envelope. An evaporator support assembly is attached to a dynode assembly in such a manner as to align and precisely locate the dynode assembly with respect to the interior wall surface of the tube. The evaporator support assembly provides a structure for attaching an alkali source within the tube in a manner which guarantees mechanical and electrical reproducibility. The evaporator support structure also includes a structure for making contact to the photocathode of the tube.
