Abstract：We discuss an evolution of ideas in vacuum photodetector developments. Diverse approaches in developments of vacuum photodetectors (classical photomultipliers and hybrid phototubes) for the last half of century are covered. A particular emphasis is made on large area vacuum photodetectors developed for large-scale astroparticle experiments. Some other issues concerning WLS and light guide techniques for increasing photodetectors sensitivity are highlighted as well as fast high efficiency inorganic and organic scintillators.
