Abstract

The microchannel-plate photomultiplier tube (MCP-PMT) is the key component in the Daya Bay reactor neutrino experiment II. However, there are few approaches to evaluate its properties. Based on the situation, a testing system and a series of experiments to assess the static performance of MCP-PMT have been developed. The MCP-PMT with 8 inch diameter applied with high voltage is illuminated by appropriate incident light. The cathode and anode current are sampled by capture card to calculate static performance of MCP-PMT. The power spectral density of the anode output current is investigated with FFT. After the experiments are conducted, the system is qualified to test and analyze the static performance of studied MCP-PMT.
