Advances in the Large Area Picosecond Photo-Detector (LAPPD): 8" x 8" MCP-PMT with Capacitively Coupled Readout
arxiv(2022)
摘要
We present advances made in the Large Area Picosecond Photodetector (LAPPD),
an 8" × 8" microchannel plate photomultiplier tube (MCP-PMT), since
pilot production was initiated at Incom, Inc. in 2018. The Gen-I LAPPD utilizes
a stripline anode for direct charge readout. The novel Gen-II LAPPD employs an
internal resistive thin-film which capacitively couples to a customizable
external signal readout board, streamlining production. The Gen-II LAPPD, with
an active area of 373 cm^2, is capable of high single photoelectron (PE) gain
of ∼10^7, low dark rates (∼1 kHz/cm^2), single PE timing
resolution of ∼65 ps, and 𝒪(mm) position resolution. Coupled
with a UV-grade fused silica window, the LAPPD features a high quantum
efficiency (QE) bialkali photocathode of >30
∼165 nm. The LAPPD is an excellent candidate for electromagnetic
calorimeter (ECAL) timing layers, photon-based neutrino detectors, high energy
collider experiments, medical imaging systems, and nuclear non-proliferation
applications.
