    Beamtests of the N-on-n Silicon Microstrip Detector with Various P-stop Structures

    No full text
    A Silicon microstrip detector with n-strip readout on the nbulk Silicon has been fabricated by implementing 4 different pstop structures in 6 zones in the detector's n-side. The detectors were assembled into the units of detector-electronics modules. The response difference in the p-stop structures and effect of detector strip length were characterized in the laboratory and under the beamtests with charged pions. I. INTRODUCTION Silicon microstrip detectors are successfully used in the high energy physics experiments [1]. In the future experiments, such as in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, the Silicon microstrip detectors is planned to be a central device for tracking the charged particles in the flash of interactions. The environment for the detector is incomparable to the present experiments: the number of charged and neutral particles generated in the interactions is so large, e.g., a few times 10 14 particles per cm 2 being accumulated over the lifetime of the devic..
