  • Abstract
    We present first results on the performance of a new generation of semitransparent amorphous silicon position detectors having very good properties such as a precision better than 5 μm, deflection angles smaller than 10 μrad and transmission in the visible higher than 70%. In addition the sensitive area is very large: 30×30 cm2.
