Novel P-in-N Si-Sensor technology for high resolution and high repetition-rate experiments at accelerator facilities

Abstract

Linear array detectors with high spatial resolution and MHz frame-rates are essential for high-rate experiments at accelerator facilities. KALYPSO, a line array detector with 1024 pixels operating over 1 Mfps has been developed. To improve the spatial resolution and sensitivity at different wavelengths, novel p-in-n Si microstrip sensors based on have been developed with a pitch of 25 micrometer. The efficiency of the sensor has been improved with the use of anti reflecting coating layers optimized for near infrared, visible and near ultraviolet. In this contribution the detector system and the sensors will be presented.
