1. Silicon Strip Detectors

2. Background Semiconductors Doping N-type, P-type

3. Basics Semiconductors Four main layers: Silicate covering Long strips of conducting metal Long strips of P or N-type doped silicon Base made out of P or N-type doped silicon

4. More Basics Depletion Depletion voltage

5. Particle Detection Depletion region Electron/hole pair creation

6. Detector Parameters I-V curve C-V curves Front-Back Interstrip

7. I/V Curve for w066 10

8. I/V Curve for w066 3

9. Next Steps Analyze front-back capacitance data Do interstrip capacitance tests Irradiate wafers Redo all tests and compare data
