Silicon Carbide Neutron Detectors
The potential of Silicon Carbide (SiC) for use in semiconductor nuclear radiation detectors has been long recognized. In fact, the first SiC neutron detector was demonstrated more than fifty years ago (Babcock, et al., 1957; Babcock & Chang, 1963). This detector was shown to be operational in limited testing at temperatures up to 700 oC. Unfortunately, further development was limited by the poo...
متن کاملInfrared detectors: an overview
The paper presents progress in infrared (IR) detector technologies during 200 history of their development. Classification of two types of IR detectors (photon detectors and thermal detectors) is done on the basis of their principle of operation. The overview of IR systems and detectors is presented. Also recent progress in different IR technologies is described. Discussion is focused mainly on...
متن کاملSilicon Detectors for the sLHC - an Overview of Recent RD 50 Results
It is foreseen to significantly increase the luminosity of the Large Hadron Collider(LHC) at CERN around 2018 by upgrading the LHC towards the sLHC (Super-LHC). Due to the radiation damage to the silicon detectors used, the physics experiment will require new tracking detectors for sLHC operation. All-silicon central trackers are being studied in ATLAS, CMS and LHCb, with extremely radiation ha...
متن کاملSilicon Detectors at the LHC
The LHC detectors will have to function in a high radiation environment, fluences of up to 10 1 MeV neutron equivalents (neq)/cm 2 are expected over a 10 year period. They will have to cope with a 40 MHz collision rate and high particle multiplicities. In this environment, the detectors must provide efficient tracking and btagging capabilities. These requirements are met by the silicon systems ...
متن کاملDoes Radiation Improve Silicon Detectors?
Sensors designed for the CMS Preshower detector were irradiated with protons and neutrons to fluences equivalent up to 2x10 n/cm. The leakage current and the capacitance as well as the charge collection efficiency and the noise were measured, before and after the irradiation, for most of the detectors. We noticed, that for some detectors of a lower quality, the breakdown voltage increases after...
