  Test Beam 2003: Detector types and planned measurements

  
A total of 5 sensor designs were chosen for testbeam studies. The detector layouts are shown in Fig. 1. For each detector layout samples were exposed to a particle fluence of 3, 6 and 9x1014 neq/cm2. The devices were bump bonded to unirradiated readout chips. The samples were tested using the high energy pions in the H2 beam line of CERN SPS in June 2004.

FIGURE 1: Top left: P-Stop structure, "One ring" (Sintef); Top right: P-Spray structure (CiS) available with 20 um gap ("Dot 1") and 15 um gap ("Dot 2"); Bottom left: P-Stop structure, "One ring" (CiS); Bottom right: P-Stop structure, "Cross 3" (CiS).  Planned sensor studies:
  • Charge collection efficiency dependence on detector type (using 90 deg. beam, B=0 T, non-irradiated detectors and high statistics runs)
  • Charge sharing between pixels (using 90 deg. beam, B=0 T, irradiated and non-irradiated detectors
  • Depletion depth and trapping (using a grazing angle of 15 deg., B=0 T)
  • Lorentz angle and cluster shape (using a grazing angle of 15 deg., B=3 T, irradiated and non-irradiated detectors)
