A new method for determining the absolute detection efficiencies of a microchannel plate detector for neutral particles has been developed. This methodis based onthe coincidence measurement of neutralized incident ions and ionized target atoms in electron capture collisions. Using this method, we determined the detection efficiencies for H, C, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, and W atoms with energies of 0.5-4.8 keV. Additionally, a scaling law for these detection efficiencies was derived.
