Why not combining RPC and Micromegas For large Micromegas (not segmented) discharge can be a problem for electronics. This can be avoided by adopting the RPC principle 1- Resistive anode 2- Resistive mesh : few M Ω.cm Kapton holes made with LASER (collaboration with Rui) cathode Anode Resistive mesh I.Laktineh, IPN-Lyon, Rpeort at the November 2009 RD51meeting

Signal obtained from the mesh: Pream ORTEC142B+AMPLIFIER(gain=20) Preliminary

We have ordered from Rui resistive meshes much before the Laktineh talk, however received it after the Laktineh talk.. so certainly we give him and his group all credits

Resistive Mesh Detectors This approach could be an alternative/or complimentary to the ongoing efforts in developing MICROMEGAS and GEMs with resistive anode readout plates and can be especially beneficial in the case of micropattern detectors combined with a micropixel-type integrated front end electronics.

it was made from resistive Kapton by a laser drilling technique Mesh #1 had a thickness t= 20μm, hole’s diameter d=70 μm and hole spacing a=140 μm, resistivity –a few MΩ/□

a) PPAC, G=1-3mm b) MICROMEGAS, G= mm c) GEM, G= mm Drift mesh Spacers Amplifier GEM, G=0.2mm + MICROMEGAS G= mm d) Resistive mesh From these stretched meshes different detectors could be assembled:

3 mm gap RPC : mesh #2 had t=25 μm, d=0.7 mm and a=1.7 mm; mesh #3 had t=25 μm, d=0.8 mm, a=2.8mm; Meshed # 2 and #3 were manufactured by usual mechanical drilling techniques.

View from the bottom Resitsive anode Readout strips

Some results obtained with large gap resistive mesh RPC In fact it is an RPC with a drift region! Large-gap mesh RPCs were used in early experiments just to demonstrate the operational principle Spark’s energy was suppresses on orders of magnitude (For the details of measurement see :A. Di Mauro et al., arXiv: , 2007 ) Resistive RPC Cathode-mesh: t=25 μm, d=0.7 mm and a=1.7 mm Anode –resistive Kapton Cathode –anode gap 3mm

Max available rate with our 55 Fe Some results obtained with the resistive mesh#1 Resistive MICROMEGAS Cathode-mesh (t= 20μm, d=70 μm, a=140 μm) Anode –metallic Cathode –anode gap 1mm With alphas we almost reached the Raether limit, with 55 F we were 10 times below it indicating that at high voltages breakdowns were due to imperfections 55 Fe Triangles-alphas, squares- 55 Fe

Resistive MICROMEGAS Cathode-mesh ( t= 20μm, d=70 μm, a=140 μm) Anode –metallic or resistive Kapton Cathode –anode gap 0.1mm Fishing line and Kapton spacers The same tendency as with a 1mm gap detectors: the Raether limit is reached with alphas, but not with 55 Fe (due to even stronger contribution of imperfections at this very small gap) Triangles-alphas, squares- 55 Fe Preliminary!

Resistive GEM: Two parallel meshes (t= 20μm, d=70 μm, a=140 μm) Gap =0.05mm Fishing lines and Kapton spacers Triangles-alphas, no signals were observed with 55 Fe The maximum achievable gain for the resistive GEM was low, probably due to the mesh and design defect RM-GEM Drift Preliminary!

Triangles-alphas, squares- 55 Fe Cascaded resistive mesh detectors Resistive GEMs in cascade: Two parallel meshes (t= 20μm, d=70 μm, a=140 μm) Gaps =0.2mm, fishing line spacers Drift RM-GEM RM-μM Ar+15%CO 2 Voltage drop over RM-GEM 700V, transfer field 1.5kV/cm Single (Cascaded) Raether limit is reached with 55 Fe! Preliminary!

Preliminary conclusion: resistive meshes are ideal for multistep designs: Higher gains No discharge propagation (the main enemy in cascaded metallic GEMs ) Potentially good position resolution

Position resolution: It is already 2-3 times better that was obtained with a RETGEM. We are quite confident that a much better position resolution can be achieved with a finer mesh and with more accurate measurements and work in this direction is now in progress. Preliminary! ~300um Pulse profile CsI

Conclusions. ● Resistive meshes developed and tested in this work are convenient construction blocks for various spark-protective detectors including the GEM-like and MICROMEGAS-like. ● Due to the small diameter of their holes and the fine pitch, a better position resolution can be achieved with resistive mesh –based detectors than with the RETGEMs. ● No discharge propagation was observed in our experiment when RMDs operated in cascade mode. One of the advantages of the cascade mode is the possibility to reduce an ion back flow to the cathode which can be an attractive features for some applications such as photodectors or TPC. ● Our nearest efforts will be focused on developments and tests of fine pitch meshes manufactured by various techniques and on optimization its geometry and resistivity. This will allow for the building of high position resolution spark protected micropattern detectors. One of the possibilities is to use the fine resistive mesh for MICROMGAS combined with a micropixel readout plate; this approach can be an alternative to current efforts from various groups to develop micropixel anode plate with resistive spark protective coating
