Improved light transitions from scintillators to new photocathode windows

Replacement of a quartz photocathode window by an YAlO/sub 3/ (YAP) window yielded improved light transitions from BGO crystals (1.78 times) and PbWO/sub 4/ crystals (1.76 times) to the photocathode. This improvement is due to the $9 higher refractive index of YAP (1.95), which matches much better t...

description Replacement of a quartz photocathode window by an YAlO/sub 3/ (YAP) window yielded improved light transitions from BGO crystals (1.78 times) and PbWO/sub 4/ crystals (1.76 times) to the photocathode. This improvement is due to the $9 higher refractive index of YAP (1.95), which matches much better the indices of BGO (2.14) and PbWO/sub 4/ (2.18) than quartz (1.47). (1 refs).
