DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Philip Hauer (Helmholtz-Institut für Strahlen- und 
 Kernphysik)\n\nAbstract: Gas Electron Multipliers (GEMs) play a crucial r
 ole as amplification stages in modern gaseous detectors\, offering high sp
 atial and temporal resolution at moderate cost\, even at large sizes and h
 igh particle rates. At the FTD\, we have successfully implemented a reliab
 le process for producing standard 10 × 10 cm2 GEM foils that was develope
 d in close collaboration with CERN’s MPT workshop\, which traditionally 
 acts as the main supplier of GEM foils to the community. This achievement 
 represents an important step forward\, providing enhanced flexibility for 
 research and development. The production process at the FTD employs a dou
 ble-mask photolithographic technique\, and makes use of a wide variety of 
 equipment such as wet benches\, a dry-film laminator\, and UV exposition s
 ystems. Through iterative improvements\, each production step has been ref
 ined to ensure high-quality results consistently. This talk will detail th
 e production and quality assurance workflow\, highlight key innovations\, 
 showcase measurement results confirming the reliability of the foils\, and
  outline plans for exploring novel GEM parameters and geometries. Join Zo
