Comparison of Silvaco and Synopsys TCAD Predictions Including the Perugia Radiation Damage Model in Silicon Pixel Detectors for the HL-LHC
M. Bomben, T. Croci, K. Aouadj +4
At the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), silicon pixel detectors will be exposed to radiation fluences about 5 to 10 times larger than those experienced by the curren…
Measurements and simulations of X-ray radiation damage effects on CNM n-type 4H-SiC MOS capacitors
Khaoula Aouadj, Alessandro Fondacci, Arianna Morozzi +7
Silicon carbide is a promising material for radiation-hard detectors due to its wide bandgap, low leakage current, high critical electric field, and high saturation velocity. A key…
Timing resolution from beam tests on thin LGADs down to 16.6 ps
Robert Stephen White, Marco Ferrero, Valentina Sola +14
The paper reports on the timing resolution achieved with Low-Gain Avalanche Diodes (LGADs), optimised for extreme-fluence conditions, at the DESY Test Beam Facility using 4~GeV/c e…
A two-prong Approach to the Simulation of DC-RSD: TCAD and Spice
T. Croci, L. Menzio, R. Arcidiacono +12
The DC-coupled Resistive Silicon Detectors (DCRSD) are the evolution of the AC-coupled RSD (RSD) design, both based on the Low-Gain Avalanche Diode (LGAD) technology. The DC-RSD de…
Measurements and TCAD simulations of innovative RSD and DC-RSD LGAD devices for future 4D tracking
F. Moscatelli, A. Fondacci, R. Arcidiacono +15
This paper summarizes the beam test results obtained with a Resistive Silicon Detector (RSD) (also called AC-Low Gain Avalanche Diode, AC-LGAD) pixel array tested at the DESY beam…
Compensated LGAD optimisation through van der Pauw test structures
Alessandro Fondacci, Tommaso Croci, Daniele Passeri +11
A new gain implant design has recently been introduced to enhance the radiation resistance of low-gain avalanche diodes (LGADs) to the extreme fluences anticipated in future hadron…
