N. Bacchetta et al., DEGRADATION OF SILICON AC-COUPLED MICROSTRIP DETECTORS INDUCED BY RADIATION, IEEE transactions on nuclear science, 40(6), 1993, pp. 2001-2007
Results are presented showing the radiation response of ac-coupled FOX
FET biased microstrip detectors and related test patterns to be used i
n the microvertex detector of the CDF experiment at Fermi National Lab
oratory. Radiation tolerance of detectors to gamma and proton irradiat
ion has been tested and the radiation induced variations of the dc ele
ctrical parameters have been analyzed. Long term post-irradiation beha
viour of detector characteristics have been studied, and the relevant
room temperature annealing phenomena have been discussed.
