Abstract | The intrinsic rate capability and the ageing properties of the Resistive Plate Chambers are closely related to the electrodes material and to the front-end electronics threshold. The development of a low noise pre-amplifier led us to improve the intrinsic rate capability of High Pressure Laminate (bakelite) up to $\sim10\;kHz/cm^2$, nevertheless the effective rate is significantly limited by electrodes ageing. To further improve the effective rate capability new materials are investigated. A Resistive Plate Chamber with crystalline semi-insulating Gallium Arsenide electrodes has been characterized with high energy electrons beam at the Beam Test Facility (BFT), (INFN National Laboratory of Frascati, Italy). The response of the Resistive Plate Chamber to multiple bunched electrons was measured operating the detector in avalanche mode. The intrinsic rate capability has been also measured operating the detector in a uniform high energy gamma radiation field at the GIF++ facility (EHN1 of SPS, CERN). Comment: 6 pages, 7 figures |
