55212 Silicon Strip Radiation Detectors


Tender for the provision of Silicon Strip Radiation Detectors. The equipment described below must as a minimum meet the following specifications:
  • Description: High-energy (50-200MeV/u) exotic nuclei will be implanted into a silicon double-sided silicon strip detector. Subsequent low-energy radioactive decays will be measured it is expected that the operational lifetime of each detector will be limited to ~weeks by radiation damage caused by the implanted nuclei necessitating regular purchases of replacement detectors over the project lifetime (~5-10 years).

  • Maximum 50nA/strip.
  • 100 % compliance for production detectors
  • Operating bias complete charge collection for 5.5MeV 241Am.
  • Alpha particles incident on low field contact.
  • Detector Package: FR4 PCB.
  • Transmission mounting.
  • Package type #1 - one (8cm x 8cm) wafer.

  • (3x128)+128=512 channels
  • N+n ohmic strips - serial daisy chain.
  • Connector: 4 off Samtec FTSH-series right-angle header.
  • Dimensions: maximum 236mm x 96mm (including Samtec FLE-series.
  • Socket fitted to the PCB Samtec FTSH-series header).
  • Operating Environment: Detectors will operated at atmospheric pressure.
  • (recirculated inert, dry gas) or vacuum (~10^-6 mbar).
  • At temperatures in the range ~ 0-25 deg C.
  • Quantity: Mechanical samples (PCB + connector only).
  • 2 off package type #1
  • 2 off package type #2
  • Prototypes: 4 off package type #1.
  • 2 off package type #2
  • Initial Production: 4 off package type #1.
  • 2 off package type #2
Excluding VAT is between 120 000 and 140 000 GBP
