Abstract: The Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment will be a fixed target heavy ion experiment at the future FAIR facility in Darmstadt, Germany. Its Micro Vertex Detector (MVD) is to identify open charm particles in the rich background of 15–35AGeV heavy ion collisions. We show a concept how to match the required combination of high rate capability and excellent secondary vertex resolution and discuss the status of the MVD prototype. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
