Cryogenic operation of neutron-irradiated silicon photomultiplier arrays up to 1e14 neq/cm^2
Esteban Currás-Rivera, Guido Haefeli, Federico Ronchetti
In the context of the Scintillating Fibre (SciFi) Tracker for the LHCb Upgrade 2, radiation-induced damage in silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) has been studied over a wide temperat…
Defects and acceptor removal in 60Co γ-irradiated p-type silicon
Anja Himmerlich, Núria Castelló-Mor, Esteban Currás-Rivera +11
Boron-doped silicon detectors used in high radiation environments like the future HL-LHC show a degradation in device performance due to the radiation induced deactivation of the a…
Microlens-enhanced SiPMs
Guido Haefeli, Frederic Blanc, Esteban Currás-Rivera +7
A novel concept to enhance the photo-detection efficiency (PDE) of silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) has been applied and remarkable positive results can be reported. This concept u…
Cryogenic operation of silicon photomultiplier arrays
Esteban Currás-Rivera, Frédéric Blanc, Guido Haefeli +5
The LHCb experiment at CERN has been upgraded for the Run 3 operation of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). A new concept of tracking detector based on Scintillating Fibres (SciFi) r…
