On the charge multiplication mechanism in silicon radiation detectors

Description

The analysis of the experimental data obtained for different silicon detector types irradiated by heavy charged particles in wide range of its masses and energies was carried out. It is shown that the experimental results are in good agreement with model based on the charge accumulation close to entrance detector electrode in course of the charge collection process. The accumulation of the dense cloud of current carriers leads to temporarily creation of high electric field, which can cause an impact ionization of charge carriers. 13 refs., 2 figs
