T. Ohsugi et al., DOUBLE-SIDED MICROSTRIP SENSOR FOR THE BARREL OF THE SDC SILICON TRACKER, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 342(1), 1994, pp. 16-21
A full-size prototype microstrip sensor for the silicon tracker of the
SDC detector to be used at the Superconducting Super Collider has bee
n fabricated at Hamamatsu Photonics. The sensor is double-sided, using
an AC-coupled readout with 50 mum pitch strips. The sensor size is 3.
4 X 6.0 cm2. Polycrystalline silicon is used as a bias feeding resisto
r on both surfaces. Each ohmic strip is isolated by a p+ blocking line
. The detailed requirements for the silicon tracker and the correspond
ing specifications as well as how to achieve them are discussed. The s
tatic performances of this prototype sensor are presented.
