A new approach to achieving high granularity for silicon diode detectors with impact ionization gain

S. Ayyoub, C. Gee, R. Islam +4

Low Gain Avalanche Diodes (LGADs) are thin (20-50 $\mu m$)silicon di ode sensors with modest internal gain (typically 5 to 50) and exceptional time resolution (17 $ps$ to 50 $ps$). Ho…
