Abstract
We have studied the properties of a new type of gas microstrip counter built using flexible printed circuit technology. We describe the manufacturing procedures, the assembly of the device, as well as its operation under a variety of conditions, gases and types of radiation. We also describe two new passivation materials, tantalum and niobium, which produce effective surfaces
