Irradiation Goals
• Confirm that the breakdown performance improves with dose-Done
• Check that breakdown does not appear after inversion on n-type sensors-Done
• Confirm Ibias, Vdep changes as expected for proton/neutron irradiation
• Test CCE, resolution, etc. performance after proton irradiation with pixel telescope
Proton Irradiation
• Irradiated 2 sets (n-type,p-type) of phi sensors and R sensors– Phi sensor: 1.47x1015 p/cm2 → 9x1014 niel/cm2 (7 years @ 8mm)– R sensor: 1.4x1015 p/cm2 → 8.5x1014 niel/cm2 (6.6 years @ 8mm)
• Built 1 set into double-R and double-Phi modules for FNAL test beam and laser test
• Other set used for CV measurements

With no annealing, it is difficult to say if part depletes. The three clear kinks in the CV correspond to unirradiated left , partly irradiated middle, and fully irradiated right of sensor. So annealed to lower depletion point.

Laser Test-Proton IrradiationN-type Irr N-type non-Irr
P-type Irr P-type non-Irr
• Laser tested double-R and double-phi modules while cooled (~-7 C at sensor)
– Stability of laser focus, intensity difficult to control
• See similar fraction (Irr/Non-Irr) of charge in both p-type and n-type
– Somewhere between 50-70%• 8.5x1014 niel/cm2
– From previous proton irradiaton on minis expect 40% (1.8x1015 niel/cm2)
68% (6.6x1014 niel/cm2)• With annealing to minima,
expect 10-15% more charge collected
– Will try to anneal during FNAL test-beam
Proton Irradiation Conclusions
• From RD48 damage constants, expect ~480 V depletion voltages after annealing for measured dose of proton for n-type and p-type silicon– We measured somewhere between 530-560 V for the
n-type and p-type
• From previous proton irradiations of n-in-p minis, we expect to collect ~60% of the max charge– From laser, get 50-70% pre-annealing– Will confirm with test beam
• Thus, I would expect modules to be fully efficient after this dose (6.6 years @ 8 mm)

Irradiation Results• Irradiation of ~136 kRads with
6 MeV photons– Hard breakdown behaviour
improved greatly due to radiation
• Charge in oxide– Soft breakdown behaviour
(semi-ohmic) improved only in 1 of 3 sensors (2 unchanged)
• Should improve with neutron/proton irradiation which causes more bulk damage
• Irradiation with neutrons at Ljubljaba– Breakdown behaviour gone– P-type and n-type IV similar after doses– For neutron irradiation, p-type sensors
have higher Vdep • 390 vs. 280-300 after 1.5x1014 neq/cm2
– Expect Vdep to be similar for n and p-type sensors with ~1014 neq/cm2 proton irradiations
– Changes in depletion voltages close to expected:
• From TDR, 1.3x1014neq/cm2 in 5 month LHC dose: Vdep=250 V
• Scaling for 5x1013neq/cm2, measured Vdep=86 V, expected Vdep=96 V
• Scaling for 1.5x1014neq/cm2, measured Vdep=302-320 V, expected Vdep=288 V
– Differences between measured and expected may be due to annealing
