An upgraded drift-diffusion model for evaluating the carrier lifetimes in radiation-damaged semiconductor detectors

The transport properties of a series of n- and p-type Si diodes have been studied by the Ion Beam Induced Charge (IBIC) technique using a 4 MeV proton microbeam. The samples were irradiated with 17 MeV protons at fluences ranging from 1x1012 to 1x1013 p/cm2 in order to produce a uniform profile of d...
