Development of SOI pixel process technology

چکیده
A silicon-on-insulator (SOI) process for pixelated radiation detectors is developed. It is based on a 0.2 mm CMOS fully depleted (FD-)SOI technology. The SOI wafer is composed of a thick, high-resistivity substrate for the sensing part and a thin Si layer for CMOS circuits. Two types of pixel detectors, one integration-type and the other counting-type, are developed and tested. We confirmed good sensitivity for light, charged particles and X-rays for these detectors. For further improvement on the performance of the pixel detector, we have introduced a new process technique called buried p-well (BPW) to suppress back gate effect. We are also developing vertical (3D) integration technology to achieve much higher density. & 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Electronics and Sensor Study with the OKI SOI process
While the SOI (Silicon-On-Insulator) device concept is very old, commercialization of the technology is relatively new and growing rapidly in high-speed processor and lowpower applications. Furthermore, features such as latch-up immunity, radiation hardness and high-temperature operation are very attractive in high energy and space applications. Once high-quality bonded SOI wafers became availa...
متن کاملTotal dose effects on deep-submicron SOI technology for Monolithic Pixel Sensor development
We developed and characterized Monolithic pixel detectors in deep-submicron Fully Depleted (FD) Silicon On Insulator (SOI) technology. This paper presents the first studies of total dose effects from ionizing radiation performed on single transistor test structures. This work shows how the substrate bias condition during irradiation heavily affects the resulting radiation damage.

Abstract– We are developing monolithic pixel devices utilizing a 0.2 μm Fully Depleted Silicon-on-Insulator (FD-SOI) process technology provided by OKI Semiconductor. We have investigated thinning the devices to 100 μm. Thinning enhances the feature of monolithic SOI sensors in views of minimizing the overall material and realizing full depleted devices. The latter is necessary for backside il...
