Noise and trigger efficiency characterization of cooled silicon pad detectors

Technical progress on silicon pad electron detectors, currently used in emission channelling experiments to study lattice location of radioactive dopants and impurities in single crystals, is reported. Noise and trigger efficiency improvements are achieved by using 500 μm and 1 mm thick detectors co...

description Technical progress on silicon pad electron detectors, currently used in emission channelling experiments to study lattice location of radioactive dopants and impurities in single crystals, is reported. Noise and trigger efficiency improvements are achieved by using 500 μm and 1 mm thick detectors coupled to a cooled readout system. The static properties, noise, gamma ray and electron trigger efficiency and energy resolution for different temperatures under air and vacuum were measured. The advantages of the future implementation of 1 mm silicon pad detectors with cooled self-triggering readout chips are discussed.
