摘要：

Development study of a wavelength shifter (WLS) to convert a noble gas emission light from the VUV region to the visible range is presented. The shifter is developed for the use with an array of blue-sensitive multipixel avalanche Geiger photodiodes (MRS APD) to detect Xe 175 nm emission. It was found that a polycrystalline p-terphenyl having an absorption peak at 180 nm with a molar extinction coefficient epsilon of 37500 +/- 5000 mol(-1).1 cm(-1) is well suited for this. To satisfy a requirement of compatibility with an extra pure noble gas detection medium the p-terphenyl layer was coated with an similar to 1 mu m thick poly-para-xylylene protection film. A new WLS with maximum of emission spectrum at 390 nm and at 420 nm is developed on the basis of a nanostructured organosilicon luminophore. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
