Giulio Pellegrini 8th International "Hiroshima" Symposium, 5-8 December 2011 Academia Sinica What can be improved for HEP? Reduce the dead area at the detector edges. Laser-Scribing and Al2O3 Sidewall Passivation of P-Type Sensors : (see M. Christophersen´s talk) Negative charges induced by Al 2 O 3 deposited by ALD process, isolate the sidewall surface cut in p-type wafers reducing surface current. 12
Giulio Pellegrini 8th International "Hiroshima" Symposium, 5-8 December 2011 Academia Sinica Other applications: Neutron Dosimetry Radiotherapy treatments with LINACs are widely extended worldwide to treat the cancerous tissue. However, when the primary electron beam collides with the target (Pb or W) to produce the photons for the treatment, neutrons are produced by the photo ‐ neutron reaction within the heavy materials at the head LINAC at applied energies higher than 8 MeV. This out ‐ of ‐ field radiation can deliver an undesirable and damaging peripheral secondary dose outside the treated organ that may induce other cancers. 13
Giulio Pellegrini 8th International "Hiroshima" Symposium, 5-8 December 2011 Academia Sinica Ultra Thin 3D detectors 300um Etched backside Thin membrane The device is a novel ultra ‐ thin silicon detector with only 10μm thick active volume, fabricated on a SOI wafer. The collecting electrodes are columns etched through the silicon instead of being implanted on the surface like in the standard planar technology, allowing lower capacitance. The neutron sensitive element is a boron ‐ based converter layer deposited on the front side of the U3DTHIN which detects the charged particles produced via the 10 B(n,alpha) 7 Li reaction. 10 B-compound (C 2 B 10 H 12 ) 14

Giulio Pellegrini 8th International "Hiroshima" Symposium, 5-8 December 2011 Academia Sinica European project FP7 REWARD Real-time Wide-Area Radiation Surveillance System The REWARD project will develop portable, intelligent radiation detectors (silicon 3D and planar CdTe) that can determine the flux and energy of the incoming radiation, as well as their own location. The monitoring tags of the REWARD system will be installed in law enforcement vehicles or other mobile or fixed stations and will send their location and measurement data to a central monitoring station if an abnormal situation is detected.
