Normal Damaged Recovering • We try to recover the damaged GEM. • Soft etching • Chemical etching • Plasma etching There are damaged spots. Zoom Dead GEM
As a result of recovering • Soft etching • Etching time is shorter than usual chemical etching. • Plasma etching • An etching effect is stronger than chemical etching. • Damaged GEMs, which can not be recovered by soft etching , are reprocessed by Plasma etching. Recovery of GEM is basically possible. • About 90% of Damaged GEMs can be recovered by Soft or Plasma etching .

Summary • In order to understand features of GEM chamber, we have measured effective gas gain and charge distribution for various parameters. • We started to produce new type of GEM to get higher effective gas gain with a single GEM configuration. • Recovering for damaged GEM succeed with large probability. • Neutron counter with Boron coated on the GEM was constructed and tested. Results show it is promising as neutron detectors at neutron facility in J-PARC.
