Investigation of Diamond and Si Detectors at the S-DALINAC of the TU Darmstadt (12.06. -19.06.2006)
Motivation In BeamCal doses of up 10MGy/year are expected → radiation hard detectors Energy spectrum of particles depositing energy in the BeamCal sensors 6X0 2X0 20X0
Program of Investigation S-DALINAC of the TU Darmstadt Tuneable 3 GHz electron beam energy: 2.5 to 130 MeV intensity: 1 nA to 50 µA The injector line has been used: 10 ± 0.015 MeV and beam currents from 10 to 100 nA
IAF: Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Solid-State Physics E6: De Beers Industrial Diamonds rebranded to Element Six in 2002 pCVD diamond samples from different manufactures & 2 Si samples were used 2 samples of usual (not radiation hard) Si 300 µm thick until degradation Measure CCD ~20 min Apply HV to the sample Transport biased sample to the experimental area Tune the beam 1-2 nA for Si 10-100 nA for diamond Irradiate the sample ~1 hour Absorbed doses for diamond 5.9-59 kGy/h Transport biased sample to the lab Beam current of 10 nA corresponds to 16.4 Gy of absorbed dose in the diamond per second.

Summary • Diamond and Si samples were investigated with high electromagnetic doses up to several MGy. • Standard Si can not survive doses of ~50 kGy. • Different diamond samples show different dose dependence, wide variation of signal size. • Will discuss with diamond manufacturers about the possibility to obtain more homogeneous material and samples of similar properties. • As an alternative studies of GaAs were started. • Next step with GaAs: irradiation.
