Abstract
The PHENIX experiment is planning to make a new silicon vertex tracker (VTX) for a detector upgrade to enhance the capability of detecting open heavy flavors. In this paper, the conceptual design of VTX and physics programs with VTX are introduced and then current R&D activities in PHENIX are presented.
