Summary • Japanese company can produce GEM foils with new methods ( Plasma or (and) Laser ). • GEM chamber has been constructed and tested. • Effective gas gain was measured for various parameters. • Charge distribution was measured. It is consistent with naive estimation from diffusion without GEM structure.
