Abstract :
We have produced Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) using the plasma etching method. The new GEM has holes with a cylindrical shape and can hold up to 520 V in nitrogen. Amplification factor was measured as a function of the applied voltage. A gain of 104 was obtained in argon-mixture gases. The gain characteristics are very similar to those of the GEMs made at CERN.
