Abstract
The status of the Silicon Microvertex Detector (SMD) and its installat ion into the LEP-L3 experiment are presented, highlighting novel featu res and sophisticated techniques. Preliminary results based on 1993 da ta are given and compared with Monte Carlo predictions, to understand the detector performances and its tracking capabilities.
