Avalanche Amplification in Silicon Drift Detectors
A novel device which combines advantages of Silicon Drift Detector and Silicon Avalanche Diode on the same silicon wafer is proposed. Avalanche ampliication is applied to cloud of drifting electrons in order to improve detection of radiation with low energy deposition coeecient. Principle and optimal conditions for the operation of this new detector based on Avalanche Ampliier are discussed.
متن کاملAnalysis of Background Events in Silicon Drift Detectors
Measurements of the energy resolution and the peak-to-background ratio of a Silicon Drift Detector at several positions and biasing voltages are performed. The origins of events with partial charge collection, which contribute to the background, are identified. A model describing the different mechanisms and the spatial distribution of partial events is developed. By optimizing the biasing volt...
متن کاملSilicon Drift Detectors for High Resolution, High Count Rate X-ray Spectroscopy at Room Temperature
Silicon Drift Detectors (SDDs) consist of a fully depleted volume in which an electric field drives signal charges to a small sized anode. Due to their topology SDDs combine a large sensitive area with a small output capacitance. In an advanced SDD version for X-ray spectroscopy designed and fabricated at the MPI semiconductor laboratory the input transistor of the amplifying electronics has be...
متن کاملThin-film silicon detectors for particle detection
Integrated particle sensors have been developed using thin-film on ASIC technology. For this purpose, hydrogenated amorphous silicon diodes, in various configurations, have been optimized for particle detection. These devices were first deposited on glass substrates to optimize the material properties and the dark current of very thick diodes (with thickness up to 50 μm). Corresponding diodes w...
متن کاملThe X-ray Response of Silicon Drift Detectors
A new discrete analytic calculation of the spectral response of silicon drift detectors for X-rays is developed and compared with measurements using monochromatic synchrotron radiation in the 0.2 to 1.9 keV energy range in order to explain the observed background. The calculations are in good agreement with the measurements for secondary electron charge cloud widths σsec of (85±7) nm below and ...
