Introduction

Project: fabricate a p-type strip detector with small gain Similar signal before and after irradiation

• Multiplication occurs at low bias voltage• Gain should be limited between 2 and 10:

- Avoid Crosstalk- Avoid exceeding the dynamic range of readout

electronics• Capacitance should not increase significantly

- Higher capacitance Higher noise

Variation over the basic proposals

DRAWBACK: If N+ and P diffusions are performed with the same mask, a premature breakdown is expected due to the curvature of the junction

• N+ diffusion should overlap P diffusion One extra level of Mask Optimisation of the overlap size

• It should work after irradiation

different trench depths:− 5 µm− 10 µm− 50 µm

• Structures with small P layer along the center of the strip

• Devices with large P layer along the center of the strip

− 5 µm− 10 µm− 50 µm

Fabrication: step 50 out of 80. Doping trenches.

Conclusions and Applications1. We have shown several new designs to enhance

the multiplication process.2. If detector will work many tests must be done:

uniformity, stability, reproducibility etc.....3. A PAD detector with small gain has been fabricated

following some of the procedures described in this work.4. A run containing the discussed designs is being

fabricated for subsequent characterisation.5. Test uniformity with test beam or laser with Alibava

Applications:- Radiation Hard Detectors- Tracking Detectors- Charge multiplication permits the fabrication of thinner detectors
