It is found that more than 50% of the micro strips cannotform a functional P-N junction. Based on the suggestion of simulation results, the process of stratified implantationwas then applied with the following procedures. B+ ions were firstly implanted into the wafer at 40 keV, 21014ions/cm2, and then sequentially implanted at 20 keV, 21014 ions/cm2 into the same wafers. Preliminary testresults show that over 95% of the silicon micro-strips in this batch have a perfect P-N junction with a reverse bodyresistance larger than 500 MΩcm. The energy resolution for 5.156 MeV particles of 239Pu source is about 0.8%or even less, as shown in Fig. 1. The structure of the detectors is therefore definitely different from the designeddevices (Fig. 2(a)) shown in Fig. 1, which is more like a P-P+-N structure as shown in Fig. 2(b).展开更多

It has been pointedoutthat NIEL can be incorporated into Monte Carlo transport codes to estimate the displacement damage effects[2].Fig. 1 shows the results of a SRIM simulation for 10 MeV protons injected on a double-sided silicon micro-stripdetector. It can be clearly seen that more than 95% of the energy loss can be ascribed to ionizing energy loss, whichprovides energy to excite or ionize extra nuclear electrons to generate electron-hole pairs when incident particlestraverse the detector and collide with lattice atoms. Less than 5% of energy loss is non-ionizing energy loss whichinduces lattice atom displacement damage or transforms into phonons to participate in the crystal lattice vibration.展开更多
