Abstract:

Recently a new photon detector the Radio Frequency Photo Multiplier Tube(RFPMT) was developed at Yerevan Physics Institute. The time resolution and minimal time bin for single photons detected by RFPMT is about a picosecond. The RFPMT can be operated at MHz rates and with a dedicated spiral scanning system operational rates can achive THz over a short interval of about 100 ns, while the longer term averaged rate would be at the GHz level. We propose to establish a new company in Armenia, for commercialization of RFPMTs and eventually to start developing of scientific and medical instruments based on RFPMTs, such as the RF-STED nanoscope; the diffuse optical tomography; the time-of-flight positron emission tomography and etc. for academic, research and clinical applications.
