Observation of a bistable defect generated and activated by heat treatments in irradiated high resistivity silicon detectors
نویسنده
چکیده
Systematic investigations of transient effects in the depletion voltage of radiation damaged silicon detectors after heat treatments have been performed. Experimental results on the change of the depletion voltage induced by forward bias, illumination or further heat treatments are presented. The observed change as function of time and temperature is discussed in terms of the generation, activation and annihilation of a bistable defect.

Defect Generation in Crystalline Silicon Irradiated with High Energy Particles
High resistivity silicon with different concentrations of the impurities oxygen and carbon were irradiated with neutrons and charged particles. The DLTS method is used to determine the defect parameters. During irradiation of silicon with particles lattice atoms are displaced and the primary defects silicon interstitials and vacancies form the impurity defects Ci, CiCs, CiOi and V Oi. In the de...
متن کاملCorrelation of Radiation Damage Effects in High Resistivity Silicon Detectors with Results from Deep Level Spectroscopy*
Neutron irradiated high resistivity silicon detectors have been subjected to isochronous annealing in order to study the changes in the full depletion voltage and the leakage current. The corresponding evolution of bulk damage induced defect levels was monitored using the TSC method. A single TSC peak is found to be correlated with the transient decay of the depletion voltage which is observed ...

A numerical kinetics model has been used to investigate the evolution of complex defects in high resistivity silicon detector material during fast neutron irradiation to levels expected at the CERN LHC. The complex V2O is identified as a candidate for a deep-level acceptor state which gives rise to experimentally observed changes in the effective doping concentration. The importance of the init...

High resistivity silicon particle detectors will be used extensively in experiments at the future CERN Large Hadron Collider where the enormous particle fluences give rise to significant atomic displacement damage. A model has been developed to estimate the evolution of defect concentrations during irradiation and their electrical behaviour according to Shockley-Read-Hall (SRH) semiconductor st...
متن کاملParticle detectors made of high-resistivity Czochralski silicon
We have processed pin-diodes and strip detectors on nand p-type high-resistivity silicon wafers grown by magnetic Czochralski method. The Czochralski silicon (Cz-Si) wafers manufactured by Okmetic Oyj have nominal resistivity of 900O cm and 1.9 kO cm for nand p-type, respectively. The oxygen concentration in these substrates is slightly less than typically in wafers used for integrated circuit ...
