The electrical properties of the irradiated by neutrons Si are analyzed by means of the Hall effect and magnetoresistance temperature dependence in a few series of Si samples. It is demonstrated that the electron mobility decrease with temperature as a power law with index less than in the nonirradiated silicon and can become near to one in the highly irradiated silicon. The analyze of...

Initial acceptor removal in p-type silicon detectors was studied for different samples after reactor neutron and 24 GeV proton irradiations. Although at HL-LHC fluences the initial acceptor removal is not important for standard detectors, it may play an important role in changing the properties of the multiplication layer of LGAD devices and consequent reduction of gain. A set of simple pad...

A clear understanding of the underlying physics is essential for the evaluation of detectors in high energy physics. For this purpose Micron detectors of different silicon types (FZ, MCz, n-bulk, p-bulk) provided by the RD50 collaboration have been irradiated with 24GeV protons at CERN PS up to fluences of 3e16 neq/cm2. In addition to the characteristics of leakage current (IV), capacitance...

A large set of diodes was characterized before irradiations and after neutron irradiations with different techniques CV/IV/TCT/CCE. It was found that large spread of device leakage current before irradiation has no impact on gain (constant within 15% for all samples) of the devices, but it does on noise. The excess current seem no to be related to the bulk current and there are indications...

In the CMS campaign to find the new baseline material for the next tracker, irradiated p-on-n sensors showed a non-gaussian noise behaviour. The effect has been quantified and studied systematically as a function of the applied bias voltage and sensor annealing, as well as irradiation fluence, particle type and energy and sensor geometry. In some operation area, this effect would lead to an...

Proton model (effective 2-defect model based on the EVL model) used in Synopsys Sentaurus package, has proven to produce matching simulation results with measurements. However, at high fluence (> 1e15 cm-2) and thus high oxide charge, the model does not produce radiation enhanced isolation to the strips, observed in a real p-type detector. Also simulated Cint and CCE loss in the center of the...
