Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) are single photon detectors that gained increasing interest in many applications as an alternative to photomultiplier tubes. In particular in the field of space experiments, where volume, weight and power…

In this paper, we report the measurement of the neutron radiation hardness of custom Silicon Photomultipliers arrays (SiPMs) manufactured by three companies: Hamamatsu (Japan), AdvanSiD (Italy) and SensL (Ireland). These custom SiPMs…

A new method to determine the breakdown voltage of SiPMs is presented. It is backed up by a DC model which describes the breakdown phenomenon by distinct avalanche turn-on ($V_{01}$) and turn off ($V_{10}$) voltages. It is shown that…

This paper presents the results of the proton irradiation of silicon photomulipliers (SiPMs) by mono-energetic 170 MeV protons with fluence up to 4.6$\times$10$^{9}$ particles/cm$^2$. In our work, three types of silicon photodetectors from…

Silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) will be used to read out all calorimeters in the ePIC experiment at the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). A thorough characterization of the radiation damage expected for SiPMs under anticipated EIC fluences is…

This paper discusses the effects of radiation damage to SiPMs on the performances of plastic scintillator counters with series-connected SiPM readout, focusing on timing measurements. The performances of a counter composed of a $120 \times…

The Mu2e calorimeter is composed by 1400 un-doped CsI crystals coupled to large area UV extended Silicon Photomultipliers arranged in two annular disks. This calorimeter has to provide precise information on energy, timing and position. It…

We investigate the radiation tolerance of p-type silicon pad sensors, indigenously developed for use in high-fluence environments relevant to heavy-ion collider experiments, cosmic-ray observatories, and deep-space missions. Single-pad test…

The characterisation of radiation-damaged SiPMs is a major challenge, when the average time between dark counts approaches, or even exceeds, the signal decay time. In this note a collection of formulae is presented, which have been…

In the context of the Scintillating Fibre (SciFi) Tracker for the LHCb Upgrade 2, radiation-induced damage in silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) has been studied over a wide temperature range, from room temperature down to 100 K. With the…

Silicon PhotoMultipliers (SiPM) are an excellent choice for the scintillator light readout at hadron calorimeters due to their insensitivity to magnetic fields, low operating voltages, low cost, compactness and mechanical endurance. They…

The radiation damage to a silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) set on a satellite orbit increases energy threshold for scintillator detectors. We confirmed that 1 krad of radiation increases the energy threshold by approximately a factor of 10,…

In this work, charge collection profiles of non-irradiated and irradiated 150 $\mu$m $p$-type pad diodes were measured using a 5.2 GeV electron beam traversing the diode parallel to the readout electrode. Four diodes were irradiated to 1…

The damage growth and surface modifications in Si(100), induced by 25 keV Si$_5^-$ cluster ions, as a function of fluence, $\phi$, has been studied using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and channeling Rutherford backscattering spectrometry…

We have investigated the effects of X-ray irradiation to doses of 0, 200 Gy, 20 kGy, 2 MGy, and 20 MGy on the Hamamatsu silicon-photomultiplier (SiPM) S10362-11-050C. The SiPMs were irradiated without applied bias voltage. From…

The silicon strip sensors of the Belle II silicon vertex detector were irradiated with 90 MeV electron beams up to an equivalent 1-MeV-neutron fluence of $3.0\times 10^{13}~{\rm n}_{\rm eq}/{\rm cm^2}$. We measure changes in sensor…

Silicon carbide (SiC) is a wide band gap semiconductor and an attractive candidate for applications in harsh environments such as space, fusion, or future high luminosity colliders. Due to the large band gap, the leakage currents in SiC…

Silicon detector technologies are often employed for high energy particle physics applications due to their excellent radiation hardness. Radiation damage in the form of bulk or substrate damage is dependent on the incident particle species…

Limited radiation hardness is the primary drawback to implementing Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) in high-luminosity environments, such as the Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment. Hadron irradiation generates defects in the…
