The silicon detectors in the UA2 experiment

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 1989
Abstract We present the characteristics and the performance of a large area silicon hodoscope in the upgraded UA2 experiment. The main purpose of this detector is to provide an energy loss measurement, thus helping to identify single electrons against a background of unresolved e + e − pairs from photon conversions and π 0 Dalitz decays.

Radiation damage in silicon detectors

La Rivista Del Nuovo Cimento Series 3, 1994
This work presents an overview of the most important mechanisms of radiation damage in silicon detectors to be used for high energy experiments in LHC. The changes in the shallow concentration have been studied by thermally stimulated currents (TSC) after proton and neutron irradiation with fluences up to 10/sup 15/ cm/sup -2/ to investigate the role ...

A Silicon Vertex Detector for CDF

IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 1986
The major reason for building a vertex detector for CDF is the tagging of decay vertices of particles with lifetime in the 10-13/10-12 sec. range. This is a complementary approach to heavy flavour physics with respect to missing Et and large Pt leptons.

A monolithic silicon detector telescope

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 1996
Abstract An ultrathin silicon detector (1 μm) thick implanted on a standard 400 μm Si-detector has been built to realize a monolithic telescope detector for simultaneous charge and energy determination of charged particles. The performances of the telescope have been tested using standard alpha sources and fragments emitted in nuclear reactions with ...

Detector capacitance of silicon microstrip detector

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 1992
Abstract A capacitance property of a silicon microstrip detector was investigated with a solid state device simulator PISCES II-B. Special attention was paid to the electrode configuration and the radiation effect on the capacitance property.

Undepleted Silicon Detectors

IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 1985
Large-size silicon detectors employing relatively low resistivity material can be used in electrcmagnetic calorimetry. They can operate in strong magnetic fields, under geometric constraints and with microstrip detectors a high resolution can be achieved.

Silicon radiation detectors

2003 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium. Conference Record (IEEE Cat. No.03CH37515), 2004
The rapid progress of the past 20 years in silicon radiation detectors is reviewed. The availability of silicon as an almost ideal semiconductor material is one of the main reasons for this progress. The well-defined properties of the silicon-silicon dioxide interface allowed the development of detector structures beyond the structure of a classical ...
