    We present a High-Voltage vertical JFET, conceived as a candidate for the High-Voltage Multiplexing switch in the ATLAS upgrade of the silicon microstrip Inner Tracker (ITk). Both n-type and p-type HV-JFETs have been successfully fabricated in the silicon processing facility of Brookhaven National Lab. Probe station measurements of un-irradiated devices show low leakage currents and high...

    Thin LGAD detectors from CNM were irradiated with neutrons to 6e14 and 3e15 cm-2 and annealed in steps up to 10000 min at 60C. After each annealing step charge collection and leakage currents were measured to determine gain, break-down performance and evolution of leakage currents. It was found that apart from leakage current which decreases with annealing in accordance with expectations the...

    For the high-luminosity phase of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), at the
    expected position of the innermost pixel detector layer of the CMS and ATLAS
    experiments, the estimated equivalent neutron fluence after 3000 fb$^{-1}$
    is 2$\cdot$10$^{16}$ n$_{eq}$/cm$^2$, and the IEL (Ionizing Energy Loss) dose
    in the SiO$_2$ is 12 MGy. The optimisation of the pixel sensors and the
    understanding...

    The High Voltage-Monolithic Active Pixels Sensors (HV-MAPS) detector technology is a promising candidate for particle physics experiments. While standard hybrid sensors require bump-bonding or gluing to assemble the sensor and the readout electronics together, fully monolithic HV-MAPS allow integrating these parts onto one single chip, which makes them more cost-efficient especially for...

    Two sets of passive CMOS detectors were studied: thinned with processed and metalized backplane and not thinned without backplane processing with substrate biased through the implant on top of the device. Detectors were irradiated with neutrons in reactor in Ljubljana. Collected charge was measured with electrons from Sr-90 source using an external amplifier. Depletion depth and charge...

    With the upcoming HL-LHC upgrade, there is ongoing investigations on the viability of HV-CMOS sensors for the upgrade of the ATLAS pixel detector. The HV-CMOS technology is showing great promise, however, a drawback in the standard process is the use of low resistivity silicon (10 - 20 Ωcm) wafers, as this commonly only provides a rather small depletion region before breakdown voltage is...

    In this contribution, we explore the possibility of using very thin LGAD (~ 20 microns thick) as tracking detector at very high fluences. Current silicon detectors generate signals at most of 1-2 fC: we believe that very thin LGAD can provide signals of this magnitude via the interplay of gain in the gain layer and gain in the bulk.

    Up to fluences of 1-2E15 n/cm2, thin LGAD still have a gain...

    The HL-LHC is expected to reach luminosities of up to 3000 fb−1; the upgrade of innermost tracking detectors of the ATLAS experiment foresees a decrease in pixel size in order to enhance the positional resolution. In this talk, the collected charge characterisation of different pixel size geometry will be presented. Following irradiation, sensors with 50μm×50μm pixel size show higher charge...

    Front-side biasing is an alternative method to bias a silicon sensor. Instead of directly applying high voltage to the back-side, one can exploit the conductive properties of the edge region to bias a detector exclusively via top-side connections. This option can be beneficial for the detector design and might help to facilitate the assembly process of modules. The effective bias voltage is...

    In previous studies we presented results on long term annealing studies in irradiated p-type sensors until charge multiplication occurred.
    Recently we carried out a deeper investigation on the charge multiplication phenomena of the annealed sensor, in particular its instability. We will show how it depends on bias voltage cycling and (less) on temperature. One sensor irradiated with neutrons...

    The current of initially p- and n-type bulk silicon pad diodes has been studied for low and high forward and reverse bias voltages at -30 °C. The diodes were irradiated to neutron equivalent fluences $\Phi_{eq}>10^{15}~\text{cm}^{-2}$ with GeV protons.

    At low bias voltages, the current is ohmic. The neutral bulk of highly irradiated diodes has approximately zero net fixed space charge and...

    When irradiated with fast particles, the radiation damage associated with the removal of charge carriers in n-type silicon (n-Si) is mainly due to the formation of vacancy-type defects (divacancy, A and E centers). In p-Si, an important role in the removal of charge carriers is related with interstitial defects. The appearance of silicon interstitial atoms induced by irradiation initiates a...

    CV and IV measurements were performed to extract the effective...

    Methods are developed for the application of forward biased p–i–n photodiodes to measurements of charged particle fluence beyond 10^15 1-MeV-neutron-equivalent/cm^2. An order of magnitude extension of the regime where forward voltage can be used to infer fluence is achieved for OSRAM BPW34F devices.
