Abstract
A double-sided, double metal, AC coupled readout silicon microstrip sensor (DDSMS) has been developed for the SVX-II, the upgrade vertex detector for CDF. Key issue in the development is to achieve sufficient radiation hardne ss for survival in the radiation environment of several kGy/yr. The require d high-voltage capability and the reduction of the readout capacitance of t he double-metal side were critical design goals. Detailed design methods to radiation-hard silicon sensors are discussed. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B. V. All rights reserved.
