PACEM: a new concept for high avalanche-ion blocking

We present the Photon-Assisted Cascaded Electron Multiplier (PACEM) as a potential alternative for ion back-flow suppression in gaseous cascade electron multipliers. Using a Micro Hole and Strip Plate-Gas Electron Multiplier (MHSP-GEM) configuration, the number of ions flowing back to the scintillat...
