Development of large area silicon detectors

  • 1. Hamburg Univ. (Germany, F.R.). 1. Inst. fuer Experimentalphysik

Description

Large area totally depleted silicon detectors with a sensitive surface of up to 35 cm2 have been developed for applications in high energy physics with emphasis on electromagnetic and hadronic shower calorimeters. Special fabrication processes and related diode properties, including long-term stability, will be discussed. Special attention is given to edge effects which are investigated with a scanning proton microbeam. The radiation sensitivity of such detectors was extensively studied through capacitance-voltage as well as capacitance-frequency measurements. (orig.)
