Abstract

The measurements of light yield of PbWO₄ crystals with normal methods may have relatively large errors because the crystals have a low light yield. The measurements of light yield of PbWO₄ crystals by single photoelectron method with normal radioactive sources are described. The results of the measurements for several PbWO₄ samples produced by Beijing Glass Research Institute are reported. Also, scintillation decay times and relative light intensities of the samples are presented.
