We report about the progress of study of the model of vacancy-interstitial defect cluster presented earlier at 26th Cern RD50 workshop. According to this model the defect cluster is realized as a confined inclusion of disordered vacancy and interstitial defects where the subregion of interstitials is shifed from the subregion of vacancies along the trajectory of incident high energy particle....

Future HEP experiments will have to face neutron equivalent fluences up to 2$\cdot$10$^{16}$ neq/cm$^{2}$ and an ionizing dose in the order of a few MGy. Thin n+p Si sensors are potential candidates for coping with such radiation environment, but more experimental data are essential in order to: firstly, get a deeper understanding of the properties of hadron induced defects, and secondly...

The measurement of thermally stimulated current was performed in the irradiated silicon pad detectors excited by light and by forward current. The TSC measurement was performed in the reverse bias regime. The differences in the spectrum are explained by a contribution of the non-equilibrium holes on the modulation of the microinhomogeneities related to the clusters and recombination in the...

The reverse current of irradiated silicon sensors has a strong influence on the signal-to-noise-ratio of a detector and leads to significant heat dissipation within the detector. Thus knowledge of the expected reverse current is crucial for detector design and operation.

For highly irradiated silicon sensors the electric field under reverse bias takes the shape of a double junction with high field strength near the implants and a region of low field strength in between. For this condition it is not trivial to disentangle the electric field, (de-)trapping of charge carriers, and the drift velocity all of which are a function of the irradiation and the position...

The LGAD characteristics are calculated basing on the model of carrier impact ionization in the p+ built-in layer. It is shown that characteristics of the diodes are controlled by negative feedback via trapping of holes arisen due to impact ionization, which reduces the electric field and the signal gain.
