D Series Planar Totally Depleted Silicon Surface Barrier Radiation Detector

Main Application
Time-of-Flight measurements with heavy ions.
  • Literature +

  • Mounting Arrangements +


    Mount must be specified when ordering.

    A
     This is a "ring mount"; i.e., the silicon wafer is offered on its ring without output connectors. This infrequently used arrangement is available on special request. For 40 µm to 100 µm detectors.

    E  This is a special type of transmission mount in which four screws can be carefully adjusted to avoid excessive pressure on particularly fragile silicon wafers. For up to 40.0 µm thick detectors. Note: E Mounts may be disassembled by removing screws. V dimension provides distance between mounting holes that are 1.7 mm in diameter and suitable for 0.080 screws.

    T  Microdot connector on the side of the can (open back) for depletion depth >40.0 µm.

    Dimensions are given in millimeters.

  • Ordering Information +


    Mount must be specified when ordering.

    Unless specified otherwise, supplied in E Mount for up to 40.0 µm thickness; in T Mount for >40.0 µm thickness.

    *All standard totally depleted detectors are cut off-axis from the parent crystal at a specific angle that will minimize channeling. Larger areas available on special order. Other areas and depths available on special order.

    **First three digits of Model No. indicate total system noise width measured with standard ORTEC electronics and 0.5-µs shaping time constants. Noise width is given for the smallest thickness (largest capacitance) in each range and specified nominal area. For high-capacitance units, performance depends on actual thickness and area.

    NOTE: Alpha Suite Compatible Detectors: ULTRA-AS and Low-Background R Series detectors in B-mount are guaranteed compatible with the Alpha Suite products (DUO, MEGA, ARIA, ENSEMBLE).  All other detectors require an approved special for compatibility and warranted specifications.
