This document introduces the features and characteristics of HAMAMATSU's new compact side-on PMT series. The series has a wider X-axis anode uniformity, which improves detection efficiency and makes optical alignment easier. The R6357 is a unique addition, it is a new meshless multialkali compact PMT with over 100mA/W photocathode radiant sensitivity.
This document introduces Hamamatsu's new line of compact 1/2-inch diameter, 9-stage side-on photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). The series features an improved electro-optic construction that provides greater X-axis anode uniformity full width half maximum (FWHM), resulting in a wider detection efficiency "sweet spot" and easier optical alignment. A unique addition to the series is the R6357, a meshless multialkali compact PMT with over 100mA/W photocathode radiant sensitivity.

Applications include Hi Emission Spectroscopy, Environmental Monitoring, Fluorescence Immunoassay, Chemiluminescence Immunoassay, Hygiene Monitor, X-ray Phototimer, Fluorometer, and Microscope.
The R6357 is a meshless multialkali compact PMT that achieves higher photocathode sensitivity by eliminating the mesh in front of the photocathode.
The typical operating temperature range for these tubes is from -80 to +50 degrees Celsius.
