Radiation damage Two types of radiation damage in detector materials: Bulk (Crystal) damage due to Non Ionizing Energy Loss (NIEL) - displacement damage, built up of crystal defects – I. Increase of leakage current (increase of shot noise, thermal runaway) II. Change of effective doping concentration(higher depletion voltage, under- depletion) III. Increase of charge carrier trapping(loss of charge) Surface damage due to Ionizing Energy Loss (IEL)- accumulation of charge in the oxide (SiO2) and Si/SiO2 interface – affects: interstrip capacitance (noise factor), breakdown behavior, … ! Signal/noise ratio = most important quantity ! G. Kramberger, Jožef Stefan Institute, Towards Radiation Hard Silicon Detectros at SLHC
