Device Simulations & Hardware Developments for CBM STS Sudeep Chatterji CBM Group GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research CBM Collaboration Meeting, Split, Croatia 6 October, 2009
Outline • Status last time • Measurements • I-V and C-V setup • labview programs • Results on some devices • Simulations • SYNOPSIS TCAD packages • Some results • SPICE simulation (What’s the need) • Next Sensor prototype from CIS • Future Plans
Status last time (Simulations) • Were Simulating Single sided strip detectors • Using PISCES and SUPREM
Status last time (Measurements) • Procured LCR meter
HV Isolation Box for LCR meter RC High Pass Filter • Purpose: • The leakage current can only flow through PA, no other path is allowed. • The AC signal sourced by LCR meter goes in DUT and then is sunk by LCR. • The operation of LCR and PA are decoupled. • Realisation: • The HV side of DUT is coupled via a blocking capacitor to H connector. • A large R prevents the AC signal sourced by H to be sank by power supply. • L conn. needs to be decoupled so that leakage current does not reach LCR.
Effect of open calibration open probe wires Before Calibration After Calibration
C-V characteristic of a 56pF capacitor with open calibration
I-V characteristic of a 91kOhm resistor (reverse bias voltage)
I-V characteristic of a 1N4151 p-n diode Reverse Bias Forward Bias (current limit 2.5mA)
Coupling Capacitance (CAC) • Typicalvalue ~ 100 pF • To avoid significant signal loss
Interstrip Capacitance (Cint) • Typical value ~ 1-10 pF • Purpose: To determine cross talk, Contributes to ENC • Cint = 2 (Cint1 + Cint2) • CTot = Cb + Cint • ENC = a + b.CTot e-/pF
Bias Resistor • Typical Value ~ 1-10 MΩ • Provides isolation between the strips • Rint is fine if the measured resistance Vs. VBias plateaus • The plateau level resistance is the Polysilicon bias resistance
Interstrip Resistance (Rint) • Typical Value ~ 1-10 GΩ • Provides isolation between the strips
Flat Band Voltage • Used to extract the surface oxide charge (Quality of Oxide) • Important parameter for surface radiation damage • Need to probe MOS device for this measurement
Need of new Measurements (SPICE Model) • The noise of the readout is determined by CTot seen by the preamplifier • Not only the Capacitance (C) but also the resistance (R) values affect signal • processing and various sources of noise. • It is not possible to measure all the R and C especially after irradiation • Radiation damage also induces variation in the macroscopic parameters, • such as resistance and capacitance values.
Need of new Measurements (SPICE Model) • R and C that could not be measured are treated • as free parameters in SPICE model and are • extracted through the fitting procedure. • Some parameters could be measured but could • not reach a plateau value with frequency
Measurement Table • Resistance of the implantation strip (Rn) can not be measured and Cnb and Cnn+1 measurements do • not have a plateau value. These were determined through SPICE simulations.
Summary/Future Plans • TCAD simulation running successfully (on batch farm) • Plan to start SPICE simulation (P-SPICE installed) • Decide with CIS the simulation parameters • Radiation Damage in DSSDs (help needed from Physicists) • In hardware, plan to carry out full sensor characterization • Design Probe card and Multiplexer (or explore market) • Irradiation of Sensors/Annealing studies • Accepted in 2009 IEEE NSS: • Development of Radiation hard Silicon Sensors for the CBM Silicon Tracking System using simulation approach - Oral • The Silicon Tracker of the CBM Experiment at FAIR: Detector Developments and First in-beam Characterization-Poster
