Abstract

A three-dimensional (3D) silicon detector is an alternative semiconductor detector for high radiation environments. The 3D detector has several advantages such as radiation hardness so it can be used for a longer period of time in a high radiation environment without replacement. A dual-type 3D silicon detector is simulated, and the full depletion voltage, capacitance, response time and charge collection efficiency are measured.
