Session 5: Planar Sensors (2)
- Ulrich Parzefall (Albert-Ludwigs-Universitaet Freiburg (DE))
The replacement to the existing endcap electromagnetic and hadronic calorimeters in CMS for the high-luminosity running at the LHC (HL-LHC), will be a High Granularity Calorimeter (HGCAL) that will provide unprecedented information on electromagnetic and hadronic showers in the intense pileup of the HL-LHC. The electromagnetic section and the high-radiation region of the hadronic section will...
The planned upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) requires the development of new tracking silicon sensors for the future ATLAS detector. These new devices must fulfil the specifications established by the ATLAS collaboration, in order to guarantee the proper performance of the tracking system during the life time of the experiment. A prototype strip sensor layout have been designed at...
Near Ultraviolet, High Density (NUV-HD) SiPM technology, developed at FBK (Trento, Italy), is based on a p-on-n junction and features peak photon-detection efficiency (PDE) in excess of 60% at 410 nm. Dark Count Rate (DCR) is in the order of 100 kHz/mm2, correlated noise is 10% at 55% PDE and microcell pitch ranges between 15 um and 40 um. Sensitivity remains high down to 320 nm, with a PDE of...
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...
