چکیده

For future particle accelerator experiments, e.g. at FAIR, we are developing novel, advanced diamond sensors grown by chemical vapour deposition (CVD), capable on one hand of replacing the commonly used silicon tracking devices and being on the other hand an advantageous alternative to polycrystalline or single-crystal diamond sensors used so far in beam diagnostics and timing applications. By using heteroepitaxial diamond films grown on Ir/YSZ/Si(001) we want to bridge the gap between polycrystalline (which exhibits inhomogeneous incomplete charge collection) and single-crystal CVD diamond (i.e. of small areas), enabling the fabrication of large-area diamond sensors of good homogeneity, high drift velocity of the charge carriers, and of almost complete collection of the particle induced charge.

Electrical and Photo Conductivities in Heteroepitaxial Quasi Single-Crystal CVD-Diamond Detectors

The properties of CVD Diamond (CVDD) detectors such as high mobility of charge carriers, radiation hardness, and low dark conductivity provide a detector material, which is suggested to be applied in high intensity heavy-ion beam environments where classical detector devices cannot be operated [1]. In the future FAIR experiments radiation-hard materials with large area will be required for a va...

First Results of CVD-Diamond Detectors Grown on Large Iridium Substrates

A promising course for large-area ‘quasi’ single-crystal CVD diamond (scCVDD) is the heteroepitaxial growth on the multilayer structure Ir/YSZ/Si(001) [1] as developed at the University of Augsburg on 4inch wafers. Key issue is the similarity of the lattice constants of diamond (dDia = 3.567 Å) and Iridium (dIr = 3.834 Å). Figure 1 shows characterization results of two Diamond-on-Iridium (DoI) ...

Homogeneous Large Area CVD-Diamond Detectors for Tracking and ToF

In the last year, we continued with the development of large-area diamond sensors grown at the University of Augsburg by chemical vapour deposition (CVD) on wafer scale Ir/YSZ/Si(001) substrates. Early results of diamondon-iridium (DoI) sensors [1] were indicating significant defect densities within the detector bulk, which led to reduced charge collection efficiencies CCE = QColl/QGen= 40% (wi...

Direct imaging of boron segregation at dislocations in B:diamond heteroepitaxial films.

A thin film of heavily B-doped diamond has been grown epitaxially by microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition on an undoped diamond layer, on top of a Ir/YSZ/Si(001) substrate stack, to study the boron segregation and boron environment at the dislocations present in the film. The density and nature of the dislocations were investigated by conventional and weak-beam dark-field transmission ele...

Intrinsic vacancy-induced nanoscale wire structure in heteroepitaxial Ga2Se3/Si(001).

A highly anisotropic growth morphology is found for heteroepitaxial gallium sesquiselenide (Ga2Se3) on the lattice matched substrate, arsenic-terminated Si(001). Scanning tunneling microscopy of Ga2Se3 films reveals nanoscale, wirelike structures covering the surface in parallel lines, less than 1 nm wide and up to 30 nm long. Core-level photoemission spectroscopy and diffraction reveals the lo...
