The virtual cathode chamber

We describe the operating principle and the first experimental results obtained with gas micro-strip detectors realized with anodes only on the active side, the multiplying field being provided from the back-plane and drift electrodes. For high rate operation, the detector has to be implemented on e...

description We describe the operating principle and the first experimental results obtained with gas micro-strip detectors realized with anodes only on the active side, the multiplying field being provided from the back-plane and drift electrodes. For high rate operation, the detector has to be implemented on electron conducting supports, with resistivity around 10$^{11}\Omega$‡ cm. By construction, the ³Virtual Cathode Chamber² is not subjected to the possibility of discharges between anodes and cathodes, thus avoiding one of the most dangerous problems met with standard micro-strip chambers.
