Space Charge (SC) distortions are some of the main issues for high-resolution Time Projection Chambers (TPC). The two main SC sources are those from primary ionizations and those that result from amplification stages. The gain stages are required to increase the electron ( e - ) signal above electronics noise levels, but this inevitably creates extra ions. These ions can enter the drift region and distort the electric field, and thus lower the detector performance. We will present a brief motivation for our Ion Back Flow (IBF) studies along with explanations of existing techniques and our simulation results to reduce IBF. We propose several mesh structures along with static bi-polar gating. Further, we discuss position distortions in e - trajectories due to a static bi-polar grid and use these distortions to compensate for non-linear responses of our Zig-Zag pad readout.
