• ASIC read-out chips: to reduce at minimum the very limited space available around the target, the large number of electronic channels associated with the segmented detectors.

• Tests of Si-pad detectors coupled via various boards to different ASIC chips are under way at Legnaro and Camerino.

Results on Si-pad Detectors and Read-out Electronics

The Si-pad detectors were bonded to the electronic read-out board and characterized in the clean room of the INFN Sezione di Perugia. Detailed measurements of Si-pad detectors of various geometries with either classical or ASIC read-out electronics were performed at the University of Camerino, Legnaro National Laboratory (LNL) and at INFN Sezione di Perugia.

The leakage current as a function of the bias voltage in 1 mm thick detectors. The red lines represent two different measurements on the same detector.

The capacitance as a function of the bias voltage in 1 mm thick detectors. The detector is fully depleted at around 150 V.

Equivalent noise charge (ENC) of the VA32_HDR11 chip, in units of electron charge, as a function of the input capacitance has been measured. A linear fit of the experimental data is also shown, which is given by the relation:

The linearity of VA32C2 chip extends up to 220 keV, and the ENC curve is described by the relation:

The statistical fluctuation for 60 keV photons in Silicon is 130 e-, which gives an energy resolution of 0.8%. A capacitance of ≈ 2.4 pF gives an ENC of ≈ 230 e-, which leads to an energy resolution worse than 3%.

Page 30: C.M. Petrache Trento, January 16-20, 2006

•An ancillary detector can be designed for fusion-evaporation and/or direct reactions in inverse kinematics at energies of 20 MeV/u.

•An effort should be done to avoid duplicates and to develop convergent complementary set-ups

•The chips have ENC values which worsens the performance of the Si-pad detectors, limiting the energy resolution. The obtained results disagree with the technical characteristics given by the producer.

•R&D on ASIC’s and PSA.

Experimental set-up used to test the hybrid chips. The whole system is inserted in a closed metallic cage put to mass, to prevent the influence of the external electric field and light. The image on the right is the VA-DAQ read-out system which is connected to the parallel port of the PC.

• full depletion voltage: ~ 50V•DC coupling

As the detector was delivered completely naked, a self-made AC circuitry was used for the coupling either with the ASIC and the standard DAQ system.

Summary

More realistic event generators are needed to make (usefull) simulations.

The analysis of the experiment is still going on, looking for the actual value of the resolution, achievable in working conditions.

Still waiting for thicker Si prototype. An in-beam test is going to be planned.
