Notes:
A new type of microstructure device for a gas radiation detector is proposed. This microstructure, the microhole and strip plate structure, merges the structures of a gas electron multiplier and a microstrip plate in one single plate. This design allows two-multiplication stages and a separation of the sensitive and the detection regions, with full optical positive feedback suppression. Simulations for gas gain and electron transparency of the microstructure are presented. Different applications are discussed. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.
