  13. Performance • Calibration, Noise • Occupancy • Efficiency • Intrinsic Resolution

  14. Hits Noise Threshold Offset Offset Counts Threshold DAC Offset Qinj Counts Calibration • Noise, gain, pedestals, bad channels obtained from scanning threshold with and without charge injection and counting hits • 600K errfun fits, 150K linear fits • once a day; takes ~ 2 minutes • Very stable • Downloadable chip parameters have not changed between Oct 1999 and ~ 2004 • needed to change because of rad damage

  15. Alignment: a curiosity • SVT tied to machine elements, not to DCH • SVT is always moving w.r.t. BaBar due to e.g. thermal excursions. • Position of SVT as rigid body is monitored and fed back to reconstruction ~ every hour

  16. Noise 1 MIP at normal incidence, about 23,000 electrons

  17. Cluster efficiency e ~ 97% (SW + HW) Excluding malfunctioning readout sections

  18. Resolution Blue: data Red: MC

  19. Standalone reconstruction of low PT tracks Reconstruction of ps from D*  D ps is (mostly) with SVT alone

  20. Most of the detector is working short 2 chips masked short Both noisy • Redundancy built in, e.g., 2 data and control paths • Chips are only active electronics that is not accessible • Layer 1 perfect • 4/208 sections not working • Problems are from • shorts on hybrids • elec. probems on wafers

  21. Radiation • Monitored by 12 diodes • at ~ radius of layer 1 • Diodes can abort beam • Operation tricky due to • heavy radiation damage • Now also use diamonds SVTRAD System

  22. Measured absorbed Dose non-midplane midplane Few MRad in the horizontal plane Mostly from showers from off-momentum beam particles Not from Physics

  23. Consequences of high doses • Bulk damage to Si • increase ILEAK  increase in noise • type inversion • Damage to chips • originally tested to 5 MRad with Co source

  24. Bulk Damage from Moll ~ Damage effectiveness  NIEL scaling: high energy electron cause significant damage (~1/10 of hadrons) Not appreciated by us originally

  25. Tests at Elettra (Trieste) • C-2 vs V curve show inversion • Results in ~ agreement with • NIEL scaling hypothesis • Charge-collection-efficiency after • local type inversion measured: OK

  26. Expected Atom Chip Damage • Radiation damage on AToM chip • studied using Co60 sources at LBL and SLAC, up to 5 MRad. • No digital failures (if chip power on) • Gain loss 4.2% / MRad • Noise increase: 19%/MRad

  27. Unexpected Phenomenon: Pedestal Shift • Pedestal (Threshold offset) started to increase • Behavior associated with AToM chip location, not with strip location • Remember: we have 1 pedestal value per chip!!! Chip 4 HDI Card in horizontal plane Pedestal Threshold offset (counts) Channel 20 threshold DACs = 1fC

  28. Pedestal Shift (cont.) • Sets in at an integrated radiation dose of 1 Mrad • But then it recovers. • Effect reproduced at Elettra • Ride out the storm by adjusting thresholds as well as we can AToM Chip narrow e-beam 2 Mrad 1 Mrad Groups of 8 channels Threshold offset (counts) Delta Threshold (counts) Effect reproduced @ Elettra Integrated Radiation Channel Pedestal recovers

  29. Apr May Jun 300uA ILeak (A) 10uA Days in 2004 Unexpected Phenomenon:Leakage Current Increase • Since May 2004 an anomalous increase in the bias current for some modules has been observed • Only Layer-4 modules: not a simple radiation damage effect • No geometrical correlation • Consequences: increasing occupancies • Coincides with beginning of "trickle injection" operation • beam always on!!!!!

  30. Leakage Current Increase Hypothesis: Accumulation of static charge on the silicon surface. The charge is beam-induced drifts because of the field between the facing sides of different layers. Causes increase in electric field at junction edge, inducing a soft junction breakdown. -20V +20V Pside E -20V Nside +20V Pside Nside DVL5-L4=+40V ILeak (A) By varying the potential drop across the air between the layers we can control the effect 1800 0000 0600 1200 Solution: change relative voltages, L4 vs L5 Also, increase humidity of air Time (hrs)

  31. Conclusions • BaBar SVT has been working well for about 7 years now • Installed and cabled in April 99 • Taking physics quality data since June 99 • There have been a few surprises along the way, but we have managed to survive
