Novel Strip-like Readout Geometries in Resistive AC-coupled Silicon Detectors (RSD / AC-LGAD)
L. Leander Grimm, Lorena Hahn, Brendan Regnery +6
Resistive Silicon Detectors (RSD/AC-LGAD) are novel silicon detectors capable of both precise spatial and temporal resolution. Such sensors will be essential for the next generatio…
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…
Why (and How) LGADs Work: Ionization, Space Charge, and Gain Saturation
N. Cartiglia, A. R. Altamura, R. Arcidiacono +10
The temporal resolution of Low-Gain Avalanche Detectors (LGADs), also known as Ultra-Fast Silicon Detectors (UFSDs), is governed by two contributions: jitter, arising from electron…
A brief history of Timing
N. Cartiglia
This review traces the evolution of precision timing in particle physics experiments, from the first large-scale applications of scintillator and photomultiplier tube (PMT) systems…
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…
