Abstract
Prototypes of new passivated implanted planar silicon detectors, obtai ned for the first time from 6 in. silicon slices, have been tested. Th e time and energy resolutions have been studied as a function of the t ype and energy of the detected particles, in order to test the perform ances of these detectors for time of flight measurements in the Chimer a project. Some problems arising from edge effects observed in double- pad detectors have been solved by using a guard ring.
