Abstract//


The Large Area Picosecond Photo-Detector Collaboration (LAPPD) is 
developing a large-area, modular photo-detector system composed of thin, 
planar, glass-body modules, each with two 20cm x 20cm ALD-functionalized 
MCPs in a chevron geometry.  The collaboration is working closely with 
industry partner Incom inc., towards the commercialization of this 
technology.   Incom is currently designing a full-scale system for 
construction in their production facility and Argonne is supporting that 
effort with testing and vetting of fabrication techniques, testing and 
characterization of MCPs and bench testing of initial complete 
detectors. As an intermediate step towards building a full system for 
making 20cm x 20cm devices, Argonne has developed a small form-factor 
(6cm x 6cm) photodetector production facility. Successful sealing of the 
6cm x 6cm photodetector prototypes at the Argonne small tile facility 
has been accomplished in the sealing chamber.  All components of the 
entire system have been exercised and photodetector fabrication is 
imminent. The status of both efforts will be presented.
