Hamamatsu begin shipping next-generation Micro PMT devices for point-of-care testing
Hamamatsu Photonics has announced that from the 1st November 2012, it began shipping samples of its new Micro PMT assembly to manufacturers of analytical and measurement instruments. The μPMT is a next-generation, ultra-compact photomultiplier tube that is fabricated through the use of in-house semiconductor processes for micro-electro-mechanical systems devices.
It cThe new μPMT assembly features a bialkali photocathode that is sensitive in the visible wavelength range and a divider circuit.
