Sebastian White, The Rockefeller University, NYC Richard Farrel, RMD/DYNASIL Kirk McDonald and Changuo Lu, Princeton University, NJ Thomas Tsang, BNL Instrumentation Division Mitch Newcomer, U. Pennsylvania Since 2007 we have been developing a high timing precision charged particle detector based on the RMD technology. Our primary focus has been on a solution for high rate applications...

20. Picosecond timing of high-energy heavy ions with semiconductor detectors

Dr Vladimir Eremin (Ioffe Physical-Technical Institute)

Construction of new accelerating facilities for the investigation of heavy ions requires upgrading of the time-of-flight (TOF) spectrometers for on-line monitoring of the characteristics of ions delivered to experiments. The requested time resolution of the TOF system is in the range of tens of picoseconds, which will cover characterization of ions up to uranium. The TOF systems built on...

28. Measurements of LGAD Segmented Devices for high energy physics

Emanuele Cavallaro (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (ES))

The High Luminosity LHC upgrade, foreseen for the third long shutdown of LHC, is pushing the challenge for detectors able to sustain up to a fluence of $2 \cdot 10^{16} \, \mathrm{1 MeV \, n_eq /cm^2 }$. One of the new technologies under development is called Low Gain Avalanche Detectors (LGAD), whose concept is to generate a high electric field region inside the semiconductor material....

32. Design and Fabrication of an Optimal Peripheral Region for the LGAD

David Flores Gual (Instituto de Microelectronica de Barcelona), Pablo Fernandez Martinez (Instituto de Microelectronica de Barcelona)

10/10/2014, 17:10

An optimal design of the peripheral region prevents the Low Gain Avalanche Detectors (LGAD) from undesirable malfunctions, which may compromise the accomplishment of their outstanding possibilities as charge particle detectors for High Energy Physics experiments. Without a proper design, LGAD detectors may suffer from premature breakdown or high leakage current levels, which hinder the signal...
