The classic picture Neff=ND-NA<0 Based on C-V measurements! after type inversion After irradiation the sensor bulk becomes more acceptor-like The space charge density is constant and negative across the sensor thickness The p-n junction moves to the pixel implants side Sensors may be operated in “partial depletion” Neff=ND-NA<0 Based on C-V measurements! - …is all this really true?

Conclusions and plans After heavy irradiation trapping of the leakage current produces electric field profiles with two maxima at the detector implants. The space charge density across the sensor is not uniform. What is the meaning of Vdep, depletion depth and type inversion? Measurements reflecting the electric field profile (e.g. TCT, CCE, long clusters etc.) are preferable to C-V characterization to understand radiation damage in running detectors A physical model based on two defect levels can describe the charge collection profiles measured with irradiated pixel sensors in the whole range of irradiation fluences relevant to LHC operation Our model is an effective theory: e.g. in reality there are several trap levels in the silicon band gap after irradiation. However, it is suited for applications related to silicon detector operation at LHC. We are currently using the PIXELAV simulation to develop hit reconstruction algorithms optimized for irradiated pixel sensors. V.
