Technology and Applications

Oral

We present a detection system with high sensitivity and efficiency specially designed to exploit the potentials of X-ray absorption spectroscopy in fluorescence mode. It consists of 8 monolithic multipixel arrays, each with 8 (SDD) cells with a total area of 570 mm$^2$. Optimized to work in an energy range of 3-30 keV, this 64 channels integrated detection system includes ultra-low noise...

Technology and Applications

Oral

Silicon Photomultipliers are array of many single-photon avalanche diodes (SPAD) connected in parallel to common anode and cathode, each with an integrated quenching resistor. Each pixel is sensitive to a single photon, working in Geiger-mode, with high internal electric fields to trigger self-sustaining avalanche multiplication processes. They are emerging as detector of choice in many...

158. Epitaxial growth and characterization of 4H-SiC for detection applications

Technology and Applications

Oral

Silicon Carbide (SiC) is a compound semiconductor, which is considered as a possible alternative to silicon for particles and photon detection. Its characteristics make it very promising for the next generation of nuclear and particle physics experiments at high beam luminosity.
Silicon carbide shows a large variation in crystal lattices according to the stacking sequence of the atoms in...
