The Seventh International Conference on Position Sensitive Detectors – September 12th – 16th 2005 – The University of Liverpool
Physical Motivations A Luminosity upgrade of the CERN Large Hadron Collider
(LHC) is already envisaged
L: 1034cm-2s-1 1035cm-2s-1
The CERN RD50 Collaboration and the INFN SMART project
within RD50 are aimed at developing new radiation hard materials and devices for High Energy Physics
experiments.
Possible Strategies:
- Oxygen enriched Silicon: Radiation induced V2O depressed in favor of less
damaging VO or oxygen aggregates:
Diffused Oxygen Float Zone (DOFZ) (Improved radiation hardness already shown by
RD48)
Magnetic Czochralski (MCz) (DOFZ: ~ 2x1017[O]/cm3 – MCz: ~ 5x1017[O]/cm3)
- n-on-p doped type Silicon: - improved charge collection - no type inversion
Irradiation Irradiation with 24 GeV/c protons at CERN - 3 fluences from 1014 up to 5x1015 p/cm2
- 90 diodes (75% p-on-n and 25% n-on-p) Irradiation with 26 MeV/c protons at Karlsruhe
- 8 fluences from 2x1013 up to 3x1015 1 MeV n/cm2 - 100 diodes (38% p-on-n and 62% n-on-p)
Materials and Processing
p-on-n MCz <100> ~ 900 cm - 300m thick processes: - standard - no LTO, sintering @ 380 oC
- no LTO, sintering @ 380 oC + TD killing n-on-p MCz, no OG <100> ~ 1.8 K cm - 300 m
thick n implants isolation: - low dose p-spray 3E+12 cm -2
- high-dose p-spray 5E+12 cm -2
Fz reference samples > 5K cm - 200 m thick - n-type <111> standard and sintering @ 380 oC
- p-type like n-on-p MCz
Wafers produced by Okmetic (Vantaa, Finland) and processed at ITC-IRST (Trento, Italy)Layout includes: 66 test structures (multigard diodes, mos, gated diodes) and 10 microstrip sensors

Testing Procedures
Post-irradiation:• IV and CV measurements (at 0 oC or 20 oC) before annealing • Measurements repeated after annealing steps (at 20, 60 or 80 0C) to follow the radiation damage evolution on bulk current and effective dopant concentration• Microscopic defect analysis: transient current analysis and TSC spectroscopy
Pre-irradiation: full electrical characterization of all structures

nMCz
Samples: n-type MCz (4x1014 p/cm2) and STFZ (3x1014 p/cm2).
Conclusion:
n-type STFZ is type inverted at RT while MCz is not.
A possible explanation: the 30K donor, introduced in MCz by irradiation in higherconcentration, compensates the I defect contribution to space charge.

ResultsAnnealing behaviour:
Maximum depletion voltage for non inverted diodes
MCz: improved reverse annealing Type non-inverted: depletion voltage has a
maximum
Type inverted: depletion voltage has a minimum
