Abstract
We present an analysis of the capacitances which are important for the operation of double-sided, AC-coupled silicon microstrip detectors. F rom frequency dependent measurements we extract interstrip, body and c oupling capacitances of the strips, using SPICE simulations. Using ele ctrostatic simulations we calculate the geometry dependence of interst rip and body capacitances and of depletion voltages. We evaluate the r adiation hardness and the noise contribution of different strip geomet ries.
