J. Dubeau et al., HIGH-RATE AND AGING PROPERTIES OF MSGCS ON PLASTIC SUBSTRATES, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 367(1-3), 1995, pp. 177-180
We describe the high-rate performance of MSGCs fabricated on thin plas
tic (Upilex) sheets. The surface of each device is treated by one of t
hree methods to bring the resistivity within the appropriate range: io
n-implantation, nickel oxide coating and Inconel oxide coating, We als
o describe preliminary ageing results and their local effect on the MS
GC.
