Silicon detectors, which will be used as tracking detectors in LHC-exp
eriments, face special requirements; one major challenge is the long t
erm operation of the detectors in very intense radiation fields. This
paper describes a design for double-sided strip detectors, which takes
these requirements into account. Irradiation tests have been carried
out using 24 GeV protons. The change of detector characteristics in pa
rticular guardring-behaviour, punchthrough biasing and interstrip isol
ation has been studied.
