Computer modelling of the Hamamatsu R11410-20 PMT

Abstract: Abstract. A computer model of operation of Hamamatsu R11410-20 photomultiplier based on SPICE software package has been developed. The PMT amplification process is simulated with the use of voltage and current controlled sources of current. Boundaries of linear zone were obtained for high anode current (with respect to the base current) operation regime. The results of simulation are in reasonable agreement with the experimentally measured PMT characteristics. The model can be used for simulation of any type o… Show more

“…Presumably, this discrepancy of the optimized parameters might have been caused by an oversight when transcribing the equations of [1] into the SPICE fields, which the optimizer compensates for by returning fairly different parameters so that the gain curve is still matched. For example, the GVALUE of the anode current source (12) might have been written with N = 9 in place of N = 8. In this hypothetical case, the incorrect (N = 9) analytical equation ( 4) predicts with the optimized parameters gains of G 1 ≈ 4.9 • 10 5 and G 2 ≈ 2.4 • 10 6 , that match well with the manufacturer gain curve.…”

“…Akimov et al propose a computer model of the Hamamatsu R11410-20 photomultiplier based on Spice using current-controlled sources. The authors insert a variable inter-dynode bias fraction and evaluate the limits of the anode current caused by the PMT gain [10]. Hueso-Gonzalez et al verify Krihely's model compensating some ambiguities and inconsistencies [11].…”
