Beamtest of Non-irradiated and Irradiated ATLAS SCT Microstrip Modules at KEK
نویسندگان
چکیده
-Non-irradiated and irradiated ATLAS SCT barrel and endcap modules have been beamtested with 4 GeV/c pions. Pulse shapes confirmed the peaking time of the amplifier to be 22 ns with slight deterioration in the irradiated modules. Median charges saturated around 3.8 fC both in the non-irradiated and irradiated modules. Signal/Noise ratios, using the noise estimates from the in-situ calibration, were >16 in the non-irradiated (>150 V), and >10 in the irradiated (>300 V) barrel modules. No excess common-mode noise was observed.

Characteristics of Irradiated Silicon Microstrip Detectors with h100i and h111i Substrates
In a program of developing radiation-hard silicon sensors for the LHC-ATLAS experiment, we have irradiated various types of silicon sensors with 12 GeV protons at KEK. Among the other properties, we made a comparative study of characteristics of the sensors with two wafer planes h1 1 1i and h1 0 0i. The studied sensors are p-on-n type, which satisfy the ATLAS-SCT specifications. Possible depend...
متن کاملRadiation Damage Studies of Silicon Microstrip Sensors
Various types of large area silicon microstrip detectors were fabricated for development of radiation-tolerant detectors operational in the LHC ATLAS SCT. The detectors were irradiated with 12-GeV protons at KEK to fluences of 1.7×10 and 4.2×10 protons/cm. Irradiated samples include n-on-n detectors with 4 kΩ cm bulk resistivity and p-on-n detectors with 1 kΩ cm and 4 kΩ cm bulk resistivities. ...

The ATLAS Semiconductor Tracker (SCT) consists of four barrel cylinders and 18 end-cap disks. This paper describes the SCT modules of the barrel region, of which more than 2000 are about to be constructed. The module design is fixed. Its design concept is given together with the electrical, thermal and mechanical specifications. The preseries production of the barrel modules is underway using m...

متن کاملPerformance of irradiated nþ-on-p silicon microstrip sensors
The silicon microstrip detector type with nþ readout fabricated on p bulk, nþ-on-p, is a candidate to be operational in radiation environments much severer than in LHC. We characterized nþ-on-p detectors which were irradiated up to 1:1 10 protons=cm 10 years ago. The noise level and charge collection were evaluated using the ATLAS SCT readout electronics system. Radiation-induced increase in th...
