英文摘要： Aimed at the Daya Bay reactor neutrino experiment project II, we propose the novel design of 8-inch diameter spherical photomultiplier tube based on micro-channel plate (MCP-PMT). The research contents consist of the following two parts: studying of the electron collection efficiency under different MCP structural parameters, as well as electronic gain parameters, simulation of the electronic gain of dual MCP with different MCP power-supply structures, and finally completing the design of 8 inches MCP-PMT with the geomagnetic field affect, the spatial distribution of electrode and other factors. The ultimate object is to provide theoretical and technological support for the related MCP-PMT users. The characteristics of new type MCP-PMT are as follows: the collection efficiency of electron emitted from spherical photocathode can reach 95%; the tube system can meet the need with different using purpose and also have a strong anti-magnetic ability. The results of this research project will provide the theoretical support for our country in development of the series of large area photomultiplier tubes, and will also stimulate and promote the development and production of photomultiplier tubes. So it has a great significance on the development of photoelectric detection technology in China.
