“…This allows the costeffective use of single-sided sensors that are resistant to bulk leakage current increase and that can still operate effectively under partial depletion [4]. The one major disadvantage of the n + -in-p material, that of strip isolation, is overcome with p + traces (p-stops) whose doping level and single, common, symmetric geometry have been optimized iteratively [11,12]. Also implemented are optimized punch through protection (PTP) structures, see Refs.…”

“…The relative e − and h + mobilities in S iO 2 as well as the field configuration of the n + -in-p type device leads to the buildup of positive space charge in the oxide volume and in particular near the silicon interface [5,7]. This as well as the increase in trapping sites at the interface leads to greater charge exchange and a reinforced inversion layer which has consequences for the sensor operation such as reduced channel isolation and increased surface leakage current [12,8].…”

A novel microstrip sensor geometry, the stereo annulus, has been developed for use in the end-cap of the ATLAS experiment's strip tracker upgrade at the HL-LHC. Its first implementation is in the ATLAS12EC sensors, a largearea, radiation-hard, single-sided, AC-coupled, n +-in-p design produced by the ITk Strip Sensor Collaboration and fabricated by Hamamatsu Photonics in early 2017. The results of the initial testing of two ATLAS12EC batches are presented here with a comparison to specification. The potential of the new sensor shape to reinvigorate endcap strip tracking is explained and its effects on sensor performance are isolated by comparing the bulk mechanical and electrical properties of the new sensor to the previous iteration of prototype, the conventional barrel ATLAS12A sensor. The surface properties of the new sensor are evaluated for full-size unirradiated sensors as well as for mini sensors unirradiated and irradiated with protons up to a fluence of 2.2 × 10 15 n eq cm −2. The results show that the new stereo annulus ATLAS12EC sensors exhibit excellent performance and the expected irradiation evolution.

To extend the physics potential of the Large Hadron Colider (LHC) at CERN, upgrades of the accelerator complex and the detectors towards the Super-LHC (sLHC) are foreseen. The upgrades, separated in Phase-1 and Phase-2, aim at increasing the luminosity while leaving the energy of the colliding particles (7 TeV per proton beam) unchanged. After the Phase-2 upgrade the average luminosity will be a factor of 5-10 higher than the design luminosity of the LHC. Due to the increased track rate and extreme radiation levels for the tracking detectors, upgrades of the detectors are necessary. At ATLAS, one of the two general purpose detectors at the LHC, the current inner detector will be replaced by an all-silicon tracker. This article describes the plans for the Phase-2 upgrade of the silicon strip detector of ATLAS. Radiation hard n-in-p silicon detectors with shorter strips than currently installed in ATLAS are planned. Results of measurements with these sensors and plans for module designs will be discussed. 1042978-1-4244-9105-6/10/$26.00 ©2010 IEEE

“…Orbital GTAW or Tungsten Inert Gas welding (TIG) was well established in the 1960s and the technology advanced by the space race. Numerous failures in space vehicle propulsion fuel systems, failed welds [17], [18] and subsystem electronic component damage [19], [20], [21], [22], [23], [24], [25], [26], [27] induced from stray electrical arcs all looked to be avoidable. The journey from concept to improve detector construction to later a full joint technology development programme was underway with a simple, "yes we can do it" from the VBCie Directors.…”

Abstract-Impact and its measure of outcome is a given performance indicator within academia. Impact metrics and the associated understanding play a large part of how academic research is judged and ultimately funded. Natural progression of successful scientific research into industry is now an essential tool for academia. This paper describes what began over ten years ago as a concept to automate a bespoke welding system, highlighting its evolution from the research laboratories of The University of Sheffield to become a platform technology for aerospace remanufacturing developed though industry-academia collaboration. The design process, funding mechanisms, research and development trials and interaction between robotic technology and experienced welding engineers has made possible the construction of a robotic aerospace turbofan jet engine blade re-manufacturing system.
