在这篇综述文章中，真空基光子探测器进行了审查，强调其在切伦科夫成像器件中的应用。在讨论了光电阴极、电子倍增和阳极读出等基本探测阶段之后，介绍了单阳极和多阳极倍增管、混合雪崩光电探测器和微通道板光电倍增管的现状和最新进展。对于所有这些设备的选定的例子，他们目前和计划中的应用中微子，天体粒子，高能物理实验。还讨论了未来可能的发展和创新。本综述的最后一部分致力于比较重要的性能参数，如粒子探测效率，磁场内的增益，速率能力，老化和寿命问题，以及辐射耐受性。
In this overview article vacuum-based photon detectors are reviewed emphasizing their applications in Cherenkov imaging devices. After the discussion of the basic detector stages such as photo cathode, electron multiplication, and (anode) readout, the status and recent progress with single- and multi-anode dynode photomultipliers (PMTs), hybrid (avalanche) photodetectors and microchannel-plate PMTs are presented. For all of these devices selected examples of their current and planned applications in neutrino, astroparticle, and high energy physics experiments are given. Possible future developments and innovations are also debated. The last part of this review is dedicated to a comparison of important performance parameters like particle detection efficiency, gain inside a magnetic field, rate capability, aging and lifetime issues, and radiation tolerance.
