Abstract :
We proposed and designed a new type of two dimensional detector that has cone shape structure. This detector consists the cone shape electrode and the hole shape electrode. A wet anisotropic etching and photolithography were performed to fabricate this detector. Simulation was performed in order to optimize the structural design and estimate the performance. From the simulation result, gas gain of 103 to 104 was obtained. Also, rise time of less than 10 micro seconds were calculated and reduction of charge accumulation on the insulator were estimated. A preliminary test fabrication was made and the signal from anode cone was successfully observed with this device
