K2CsSb photocathode were studied from first principle, structure optimization, as well as the material growth mechanism and control technology etc., for SBA/UBA photocathode and scintillator of 380 -510 nm wavelength conversion of High Energy Physics Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences The first principle calculation results show that the double alkali photocathode K1.75CsSbl.25 is a direct band gap semiconductor, has maximum band bending and minimum work function. According to the spectral range of emission photon on interact neutrino with scintillator, we can determine the double alkali cathode transmission-mode works in the range of 2.92-3.26 eV, reflecting-mode works in 2.43-2.92 eV. Based on the spherical photomultiplier tube structure, we present scheme of maximizing quantum efficiency of the transmission and reflection cathode and K1.75CsSbl.25 cathode 6 points monitoring preparation method. And the testing method is given.
