Time Resolution and slew rate
Assuming constant noise, to minimize time resolution we need to maximize the S/tr term
(i.e. the slew rate dV/dt of the signal)
We need large and short signals
where:
- S/tr = dV/dt = slew rate
- N = system noise
- Vth = 10 N
Using the expressions in the previous page, we can write

Low Gain Avalanche Detectors (LGADs)

The LGAD sensors, as proposed and manufactured by CNM
(National Center for Micro-electronics, Barcelona):
High field obtained by adding an extra doping layer
E ~ 300 kV/cm, closed to breakdown voltage

Using laser signals we are able to measure the different
responses of LGAD and traditional sensors

Testbeam Measurements on CNM LGAD
In collaboration with Roma2, we went to Frascati for a testbeam using
500 MeV electrons
300 micron thick, 5 x5 mm pads
The gain mechanism
preserves the Landau
amplitude distribution of
the output signals
As measured in the lab, the gain ~
doubles going from 400 -> 800 Volt.

Present results and future productions
With WF2, we can reproduce very well the laser and testbeam results.
Assuming the same electronics, and 1 mm2 LGAD pad with gain 10, we can predict the timing capabilities of the next sets of sensors.

simulations

Sensor thickness and slim edge
Rule: when the depletion volume reaches the edge, you have
electrical breakdown.
It’s customary to assume that the field extends on the side by ~
1/3 of the thickness.
edge = k* thickness
• k = 1 very safe
• k = 0.5 quite safe
• K = 0.3 limit
depleted
~ 0.3 d
non depleted
By construction, thin detectors (~ 100 micron) might have therefore slim edge

Next CNM productions
5 mm
2.5 mm
1.25 mm
0.6 mm
Timescale:
• Spring 2015: 200 micron
• Summer 2015: 100 micron
• Summer 2015: 50 micron
These new productions will
allow a detailed exploration of
the UFSD timing capabilities,
including border effects
between pads, and distance
from the sensor edge.

Next Steps
1. Wafer Production200 micron thick sensors by Spring-2015100 and 50 micron thick sensors by Summer 2015.
2. Production of UFSD doped with Gallium instead of Boron.
3. Front-end electronics under study, several options available.
