Development of a double-sided silicon strip detector for HIRFL-CSR experiments

摘要

To provide good performance of spatial and energy measurement for the experiments at the HIRFL-CSR, a double-sided silicon strip detector (DSSD) has been designed as the pixel detector. Performance of the DSSD has been characterized in a vacuum chamber with the alpha source. The reverse leakage current of the DSSD is measured to be ~ 3 nA/cm~2 ? 100 μm at the full depleted voltage and the energy resolution of each strip is better than 1%. Besides, the energy information of charge sharing events can be well measured. In this paper, the design, manufacture and performance characterization of the DSSD will be discussed.
