Single-sided p(+)n and double-sided detectors have been designed for s
urviving the drastic changes of material properties expected from thei
r use in the harsh radiation environment at the LHC. Detectors optimiz
ed for capacitive charge division readout have been exposed to a fluen
ce of 2x10(14)/cm(2) 24GeV protons. Their principal design characteris
tics and properties after irradiation are described. An explanation fo
r the hitherto not understood survival of single-sided pin detectors i
s given. First results with single-sided pin detectors optimized for b
inary readout are presented. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights
