Abstract :
A silicon-strip vertex detector is being constructed for use in the Mark II detector in the study of Z/sup 0/ decays at the SLAC Linear Collider. The status of the project, including the performance of the individual silicon detector modules, is presented. The discussion covers beam tests, vertex resolution, detector modules, module performance, and mechanical support and alignment.<>
