The Effects of High-Energy Carbon Co-Doping on IMB-CNM LGAD Fabrication and Performance

Over the past few years, Low-Gain Avalanche Detectors (LGADs) have demonstrated excellent timing performance, showing great potential for use in 4D tracking of high-energy charged particles. Carbon co-doping is a key factor for enhancing LGAD performance, which are detectors with intrinsic amplifica...
