Enabling technologies from: Sensor/Implants (<3nm gate) “High” Resistive Wafers Low Temperature Backside Process 8” hi/mid resistivity silicon wafers that will be qualified by the foundry. What is the influence of CMOS processing? (thermal donors …) Radiation hard process with as many wells as possible. High voltage tolerant. Foundry accepts some process/DRC changes! To achieve backside contact after CMOS processing. Laser activation? from: ion-beam-services.com
Technological support
Bulk process options (simple options, n-on-p) Electronics inside charge collection well Collection node with large fill factor rad. hard Large sensor capacitance (DNW/PW junction!) x-talk, noise & speed (power) penalties Full CMOS with isolation between NW and DNW Electronics outside charge collection well Very small sensor capacitance low power Potentially less rad. hard (longer drift lengths) Full CMOS with additional deep-p implant p-substrate Deep n-well P+ p-well Charge signal Electronics (full CMOS) P+ nw p-substrate n+ p-well Charge signal Electronics (full CMOS) n+ nw deep p-well - - larger capacitance makes it more difficult for the readout
Simple device cross-section high signal (full depletion possible) fast (collection by drift) small pixels limited PMOS in active area input capacitnce dominated by deep-nwell to pwell capacitance
