Concept of Ceramics Electron Multiplier

• Ceramics Electron Multiplier is a robust structure compared to other EM development

• In Dr.Jones group, two kind of Ceramics Electron Multiplier has been developed. One is LTCC/Thick Silver strucutre1, the other kind is BST(Barium Strontium Titanate) structure2
