Concept• Separation of the amplification structure and the readout plane
Resistive thin layer (1 MΩ /□ to 100 GΩ /□)
• Signal is transmitted by capacitive coupling to the readout plane
• Optimisation of the induced signal : tinsulator << tgas εinsulator/εgas
• εinsulator should be as high as possible (first prototype alumina with ε~10 )
Standard bulk structure
Insulator (Ceramic substrate~100-500 µm)
Readout plane

Conclusions and outlook
• Floating mesh, Bulk Micromegas, Microbulk, Ingrid and now Piggyback
• Piggyback resistive Micromegas provides spark protection
• Detector dissociated from readout plane
• Can optimise dead space
• High rate vs resistivity has been studied
• Test higher values of resistivity, different thickness of ceramic
• Seal detector is under development
