Investigation of the microstructure of Thick-GEMs with single photo-electrons

Novel Cherenkov detector upgrades favour GEM and ThickGEM based MPGD systems. These detectors have reduced ion backflow, fast signal formation, high gain, and could suppress the MIP signals as well. Their common drawbacks are the inefficiencies of photo-electron collection fromthe top of the ThickGE...
