Response of a passivated implanted planar silicon (PIPS) detector for heavy ions with energies between 25 and 360 keV

Abstract

Measurements of the energy response of a passivated implanted planar silicon (PIPS) detector for a variety of ions at low energies are presented. Such measurements are needed for the calibration of a PIPS detector used in a space borne time-of-flight mass spectrometer. Comparisons to similar measurements with state of the art silicon surface barrier (SSB) detectors show a weaker energy response and a much lower noise level of the PIPS detector. A dependence of the energy response on the incident angle of the ions was observed which is attributed to channeling of ions within the silicon crystal of the detector. (orig.)
