Title:
PHOTO-DETECTING TUBE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2004/114359
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The peripheral edge of a sapphire plate is air-tightly bonded by thermocompression to the end surface (window periphery) of a Kovar metal tube (1A) surrounding a light incidence window through a seal ring of aluminum (7), whereby there is no possibility of impurities being dispersed in the sapphire plate (2) to cause photon imperfection. As a result, when ultraviolet light is detected, the sapphire plate (2) is prevented from generating phosphorescence or fluorescence and dark noise is reduced.
