Silicon Photomultipliers are single-photon sensitive detectors that continue to attract increasing interest in several industrial and scientific applications that require fast detection speed, high sensitivity, compactness, insensitivity to magnetic fields and low bias voltages. SiPMs have been employed in a growing number of applications thanks to these properties and the good optical dynamic...
We report on the study of the radiation tolerance of silicon carbide (SiC) pn planar diodes manufactured at IMB-CNM. Dedicated TPA-TCT and TRIBIC measurement campaigns, carried out at the UPV-EHU and CNA femto laser and ion microbeam facilities respectively, were used to characterise the response of the diodes. The studied devices were irradiated with neutrons up to a fluence of...
Hybrid pixel detectors require a reliable and cost-effective interconnect technology adapted to the pitch and die sizes of the respective applications. During the ASIC and sensor R&D phase, and for some small-scale applications, such interconnect technologies need to be available for the assembly of single-dies. Within the CERN EP R&D program and the AIDAinnova collaboration, innovative pixel...
The Two Photon Absorption – Transient Current Technique (TPA-TCT) exploits the quadratic absorption mechanism of light, to only excite charge carriers in a small volume around the focal point. Compared to conventional TCT methods that use light in the linear absorption regime, TPA-TCT enables true 3-dimensional resolution, while providing all the benefits of conventional TCT.
The TPA-TCT...
