photomultiplier tube, PMT
photomultiplier tube
"Photo multiplier tube (PMT)" consists of a phototube that incorporates an electron multiplier. PMT detects weak light, and converts the light signal into an electric signal, then amplifies the electric signal (×105 to 106). PMT is used for a detector, such as a secondary-electron detector in SEM or HAADF detector for scattered electrons in TEM.
