3D detectors at ITC-irst: first irradiation studies

In the past two years, we have developed 3D detector technologies at ITC-irst (Trento, Italy). We have proposed a new 3D architecture, having columnar electrodes of one doping type only, allowing for a simplified fabrication process. In this paper, we report on preliminary results from the electrical characterization of devices irradiated with neutrons, showing that low depletion voltage values can be achieved even after very large...
