Abstract
This thesis reports on the fabrication and test of a pixel readout gaseous detector
formed by a Micromegas amplication grid integrated on a CMOS pixel readout
chip by microelectronic techniques. This very high granularity low-mass detector
called GridPix provides single electron sensitivity and can be fabricated by postprocessing
of pixel chip wafers.
