A very important parameter of every photomultiplier tube is the spectral sensitivity of its photocathode. For best results, the spectrum of the scintillator should match the sensitivity of the photocathode. The Cs-Sb surface has a maximum sensitivity at 440 nm, which agrees well with the spectral response of... 

Emission from dimols of singlet oxygen may be detected by photomultipliers used for measurement of chemiluminescence from hydrocarbon polymers with a maximum spectral sensitivity at 460 nm. The above scheme, however, requires the presence of at least one molecule of hydrogen peroxide in close vicinity to the two recombining peroxyl radicals and assumes a large heterogeneity of the oxidation process.
