  The beam extracted from CSRm is mainly used for heavy-ion tumor therapy and physics experiments with stable and radioactive ions. A position sensitive detector is usually implemented to monitor the primary beam online in the nuclear experiments. Meanwhile, the detector should be thin enough to reduce the influence of energy spread and beam purity. This paper describes the developing and building a new detector with position resolution better than 0.5mm (FWHM) and using metallic-membrane plating technology for sharp reducing electrode's thickness of detector. The sensitive area of the detector is (100×100)mm2, with 1mm strip pitch. The anodes, cathode and the sealed windows are all made by 2μm thick Mylar layer on which a 0.1μm thick film of aluminum has been plated. Total thickness of the detector is about 12μm.
