Radiation hardness of amorphous silicon particle sensors
Radiation tests of 32 lm thick hydrogenated amorphous silicon n–i–p diodes have been performed using a high-energy 24 GeV proton beam up to fluences of 2 · 10 protons/cm. The results are compared to irradiation of similar 1 lm and 32 lm thick n–i–p diodes using a proton beam of 405 keV at a fluence of 3 · 10 protons/cm. All samples exhibited a drop of the photoconductivity and an increase in th...
متن کاملHydrogen reverses the clustering tendency of carbon in amorphous silicon oxycarbide
Amorphous silicon oxycarbide (SiOC) is of great technological interest. However, its atomic-level structure is not well understood. Using density functional theory calculations, we show that the clustering tendency of C atoms in SiOC is extremely sensitive to hydrogen (H): without H, the C-C interaction is attractive, leading to enrichment of aggregated SiC4 tetrahedral units; with hydrogen, th...
متن کاملOn the thermodynamically stable amorphous phase of polymer-derived silicon oxycarbide
A model for the thermodynamic stability of amorphous silicon oxycarbide (SiCO) is presented. It builds upon the reasonably accepted model of SiCO which is conceived as a nanodomain network of graphene. The domains are expected to be filled with SiO2 molecules, while the interface with graphene is visualized to contain mixed bonds described as Si bonded to C as well as to O atoms. Normally these...
متن کاملPreliminary radiation tests of 32mm thick hydrogenated amorphous silicon films
Preliminary radiation tests of hydrogenated amorphous silicon n–i–p photodiodes deposited on a coated glass substrate are presented in this paper. These tests have been performed using a 24GeV proton beam. We report results on the fluence dependence of the diode dark current and of the signal induced by a proton spill.
متن کاملAmorphous SilicodCrystalline Silicon Heterojunctions for Nuclear Radiation Detector Applications
Results on the characterization of the elecmcal properties of amorphous silicon-films for the three different growth methods, RF sputtering, PECVD, and LPCVD are reported. The performance of these a-Si films as heterojunctions on high resistivity p-type and n-type crystalline silicon is examined by measuring the noise, leakage current and the alpha particle response of 5 mm diameter detector st...
