Description

We report on the activity carried out at FBK in partnership with INFN and INAF, supported by ASI, aimed at the development of large area (about 95cm2) Silicon Drift Detectors for astrophysical applications. The presentation is focused on a brief description of the state of the art of the general technological aspects related to the production of these devices for LOFT (Large Observatory for X-ray Timing) mission of the European Space Agency (ESA) and the eXTP mission (enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry) of the Chinese Academy of Science.
