THICKNESS UNIFORMITY
• Raw material characterization
• Nominal thickness 0.7 mm ▪ /Δ/ < 4%; σ < 2%
• Nominal thickness 1 mm ▪ /Δ/ < 2%; σ < 1%
à Very good thickness uniformity!

CONCLUSIONS about PERMAGLAS THGEM
• Robust material with good uniformity performance
• Difficult to get good quality thin foils
• Limited gain dependence on rate (charging up) and time (ion displacement in the bulk dielectric)
