| Abstract | The upgrade for the High Luminosity LHC in 2025 will challenge the silicon strip detector performance with high fluence and long operation time. Sensors have been designed and tests on charge collection and electrical performance have been carried out in order to evaluate their behaviour. Besides that, it is important to understand and predict the long-term evolution of the sensor prop- erties. In this work, detailed studies on the annealing behaviour of ATLAS12 strip sensors designed by the ITK Strip Sensor Working Group and irradiated from 5 × 1013 neqcm−2 to 2 × 1015 neqcm−2 are presented. Systematic charge collection, leakage current and impedance measurements have been carried out during the annealing time at 23 and 60◦C until break-down or the appearance of charge multiplication. Sensors showing charge multiplication have been then kept at high voltage for a long time in order to monitor their stability. The difference in the annealing behaviour between the two temperatures has been analysed and compared to similar measurements on n-type sensors and with a theoretical model. From the impedance measurements for the samples irradi- ated to low fluences it was possible to extract the effective doping concentration. This was compared to similar measurements on n-type sensors and with a the- oretical model. The results show that ATLAS12 sensors anneal similarly to the previously designed ATLAS07 and the behaviour is well described by the theoretical model. Nevertheless, a significant difference on the time constant of the beneficial and reverse annealing has been reported, especially at lower temperatures. For the highest fluences and longer annealing time, e.g. 5000 minutes at 60◦C, charge multiplication has been observed. The phenomenon is however temporary and disappears with the long-term voltage stress. |
