Improved charge collection of the buried p-i-n a-Si:H radiation detectors
Charge collection in hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) radiation detectors is improved for high LET particle detection by adding thin intrinsic layers to the usual p-i-n structure. This buried p-i-n structure enables us to apply higher bias and the electric field is enhanced. When irradiated by 5.8 MeV {alpha} particles, the 5.7 {mu}m thick buried p-i-n detector with bias 300V gives a signal size of 60,000 electrons, compared to about 20,000 electrons with the simple p-i-n detectors. The improved charge collection in the new structure is discussed. The capability of tailoring the field profile by doping a-Si:H opens a way to some interesting device structures. 17 refs., 7 figs

Measurements of 1/f noise in A-Si:H pin diodes and thin-film-transistors
We measured the equivalent noise charge of a-Si:H pin diodes (5 {approximately} 45{mu}m i-layer) with a pulse shaping time of 2.5 {mu}sec under reverse biases up to 30 V/{mu}m and analyzed it as a four component noise source. The frequency spectra of 1/f noise on the soft-breakdown region and of the Nyquist noise from contact resistance of diodes were measured. Using the conversion equations for a CR-RC shaper, we identified the contact resistance noise and the 1/f noise as the main noise sources in the low bias and high bias regions respectively. The 1/f noise of a-Si:H TFTs with channel length of 15 {mu}m was measured to be the dominant component up to {approximately}100kHz for both saturation and linear regions. 15 refs., 7 figs
