Abstract
A series of proton-beam irradiations was performed in order to investi gate the radiation damage of silicon photodiodes and double-sided sili con strip sensors. Measurements were made for the leakage current, bia s resistance, interstrip isolation, annealing and responses to an infr ared light pulse and beta-rays. Some problems in the production of rad iation-hard double-sided strip sensors were observed. However, it has been shown that most of them can be resolved by adequately designing t he strip structure, the implantation density and the materials used fo r various parts of the sensor. It is therefore possible to obtain a do uble-sided silicon strip sensor which works even after charged-particl e irradiation of 20 kGy.
