Ils ont comme avantage principal de permettre la fabrication de détecteurs de grande dimension et rapidesàrapidesà un coût acceptable, tout en permettant un fonctionnement en comptage (par opposition aux détecteurs fonctionnants avec desécransdesécrans fluorescents, qui impliquent un mode d'opération en intégration ,
´ ejection de l'´ electronàelectronà l'extérieur de la photocathode est en fait complexe : l'´ electron(s) ´ emisàemisà la suite de l'absorption par effet photoélectrique du photon incident subit une série d'interactions ,
il ionise lui-même d'autres atomes et crée ainsi une série d'´ electrons chauds secondaires au sein du matériau, Eventuellement, un ou plusieurs de cesélectronscesélectrons peuvent atteindre la surface et quitter la photocathode ,
´ electron doit passer unebarrì ere de potentiel appelée affinité affinitéélectronique dans le cas des semi-conducteurs, ou travail de sortie dans le cas des métaux Du fait de leur thermalisation rapide aprèsaprèséjection de l'atome, peu d'´ electrons peuvent effectivement passer cettebarrì ere et les rendements d'´ emission sont en général faibles ,
