OVER VIEW
FEATURES
Hamamatsu near infrared photomultiplier tubes (NIR-PMT) R550943 and -73 have photocathodes with extended spectral response
ranges to 1.4 µm or 1.7 µm where beyond 1.1 µm have been the
limit of conventional photocathodes.
The R5509-43 is recommended for detection up to 1.35 µm, while
the R5509-73 is up to 1.7 µm.
●High sensitivity enables accurate PL (Photoluminescence) measurement with a low
excitation power that could not be obtained with a strong excitation.
High gain and low noise improve the detection limit.
●Flat response from visible to near IR minimizes spectral sensitivity correction.
The spectral response covers a wide range from
0.3 µm to 1.4 µm or 1.7 µm.
●Photoluminescence from a room temperature sample can be measured.
High sensitivity enables weak light emission measurement.
●Time resolved measurement in near IR is realized.
Fast time response (Rise time): 3 ns.

●Operate the tube at the maximum average anode current
of less than 2 µA while the entire photocathode is illuminated in order to avoid the photocathode damage due
to excessive cathode current.
●In order to protect the photocathode, the high voltage
should be increased or decreased gradually.
●When the R5509-43 or -73 shall be operated, do not
supply the high voltage before the tube is cooled down
to -70 °C at least.
●Use the exclusive cooler C9940-01 or C9940-02 for cooling.

Exclusive coolers C9940-01, C9940-02
The C9940-01, -02 are exclusive coolers for R5509 series photomultiplier
tubes. To operate the R5509 series, it is necessary to cool it down to -70 °C
to -90 °C range (recommended temperature: -80 °C). Cooling suppresses
dark current and improves signal to noise ratio to make weak near infrared
light measurements possible with high sensitivity.
Two types are available with different line voltage regulations, 100 V to 115
V (C9940-01) and 230 V (C9940-02) .
