HRTEM, LA-ICP-MS and DLTS techniques were employed to characterize several types of B-doped silicon diodes after irradiation with hadrons. The HRTEM results on LGAD samples irradiated with 1019cm-2 show that there is a preferential grouping of defects along tracks normal to the film surface. We will present the LA-ICP-MS technique, recently installed in NIMP, with which we could estimate the...

Low Gain Avalanche Diodes (LGADs) are characterised by a low to moderate gain (2 - 100), short rise time, high signal-to-noise ratio and exhibit excellent timing performance (30-40 ps), however fine pixelization of LGADs is difficult to achieve. To provide fine spatial resolution the AC-coupled LGAD (AC-LGAD) approach was introduced. In this type of device, the signal is capacitively induced...
