Monitoring of a light distribution system with HAMAMATSU PN photodiodes in radioactive environment

Silicon pn photodiodes will be used in the light monitoring system of the electromagnetic calorimeter of CMS in order to calibrate the light injected onto each calorimeter channel. Since the calorimeter will undergo heavy radiation, we studied the behaviour of PN photodiodes under fast neutron irrad...

Sumario:Silicon pn photodiodes will be used in the light monitoring system of the electromagnetic calorimeter of CMS in order to calibrate the light injected onto each calorimeter channel. Since the calorimeter will undergo heavy radiation, we studied the behaviour of PN photodiodes under fast neutron irradiation performed at Saclay. (0 refs).
