Cryogenic Characterization of the FBK NUV-HD SiPMs

چکیده
We report on the characterization of the NUV-HD SiPMs developed at FBK at cryogenic temperature. A dedicated setup was built to measure the primary dark noise and correlated noises of the SiPMs between 40 and 300 K. Moreover a specific analysis program in conjunction with an ad-hoc data acquisition system were developed to allow the precise characterization of these parameters, some of which can vary up to 7 orders of magnitude between room temperature and 40 K. We proved that it is possible to operate the FBK NUV-HD SiPMs at temperatures lower than 100 K with a dark noise below 0.01 cps/mm and total correlated noise below 35% at 6 V of over-voltage. These results are relevant for the development of future cryogenic particle detector based with SiPMs as photosensors.

First results with SiPM tiles for TOF PET based on FBK RGB-HD technology
Fondazione Bruno Kessler, Trento, Italy We present the first results of timing and energy resolution of two newly developed tiles based on FBK RGB-HD SiPMs. The first tile has dimensions of 32×32 mm and is composed of 8×8 SiPMs, with a regular pitch of 4 mm and a cell size of 25×25 μm. Although manufactured with a standard bond wire technology, the tile achieves a fill factor at the tile level ...

A silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) array has been developed at FBK-irst [1] having 32 channels and a dimension of 8.0× 1.1 mm. Each 250 μm wide channel is subdivided into 5×22 rectangularly arranged pixels. These sensors are developed to read out a modular high resolution scintillating fiber tracker. Key properties like breakdown voltage, gain and photon detection efficiency (PDE) are found to be...
متن کاملThe isolation of mutagen-sensitive nuv mutants of Aspergillus nidulans and their effects on mitotic recombination.
More than 200 mutants of Aspergillus nidulans were isolated as hypersensitive to the monofunctional alkylating agent MNNG and/or UV-irradiation (designated nuv mutants). Of these, 23 were selected for further characterization. All were markedly hypersensitive to both MNNG and the quasi-UV-mimetic mutagen 4-NQO. The hypersensitive phenotype of each mutant was shown to result from mutation of a s...

In this paper the effect of deep cryogenic treatment time on microstructure and tribological behavior of AISI 5120 case hardennig steel is studied. The disk shape samples were carburized at 920 ◦C for 6 hours and air cooled; after austenitizing, the samples were quenched in oil.Then immediately after quenching and sanding, the sample were kept in liquid nitrogen for 1, 24, 30 and 48 h and then ...
