Photomultiplier tubes were popularized during World War II since they could be used to as high bandwidth ( up to several hundred MHz ) noise sources.
Although wide bandwidth sources typically suffer from low spectral power per unit frequency, the photomultiplier tube offers high gain ( about ) amplification of photon shot noise, making it advantageous over other lower gain noise sources.
