Irradiation Tests at Cryogenic Temperatures on Diffusion Type Diodes for the LHC Superconducting Magnet Protection

Within the framework of the LHC magnet protection system, the irradiation hardness of high current by-pass diodes is subject to examination. The relocation of these diodes and recent calculations give rather low irradiation levels for the position of the diodes. This offers the possibility to replac...

description Within the framework of the LHC magnet protection system, the irradiation hardness of high current by-pass diodes is subject to examination. The relocation of these diodes and recent calculations give rather low irradiation levels for the position of the diodes. This offers the possibility to replace the originally foreseen epitaxial type diodes by diffusion type diodes. Therefore, different types of 75mm diffusion diodes were submitted to an irradiation test program. One part of the experiments was performed in the Munich Research Reactor. Further irradiation tests were carried out in the northern fixed target area of the SPS accelerator at CERN.
