In this work, we introduce a new design concept: the DC-coupled Resistive Silicon Detectors, based on the LGAD technology. This new design intends to address a few known drawbacks of the first generation of AC-coupled Resistive Silicon Detectors (RSD). The sensor behaviour is simulated using a fast hybrid approach based on a combination of two packages, Weightfield2 and LTSpice. The simulation demonstrates that the key features of the RSD design are maintained, yielding excellent space and time resolutions: a few microns and a few tens of ps. In this report, we will outline the optimization methodology and the results of the simulation. We will also present detailed studies on the effects induced by the choice of key design parameters on the space and time resolutions provided by this sensor.

Abstract

In this work, we introduce a new design concept: the DC-coupled Resistive Silicon Detectors, based on the LGAD technology. This new design intends to address a few known drawbacks of the first generation of AC-coupled Resistive Silicon Detectors (RSD). The sensor behaviour is simulated using a fast hybrid approach based on a combination of two packages, Weightfield2 and LTSpice. The simulation demonstrates that the key features of the RSD design are maintained, yielding excellent space and time resolutions: a few microns and a few tens of ps. In this report, we will outline the optimization methodology and the results of the simulation. We will also present detailed studies on the effects induced by the choice of key design parameters on the space and time resolutions provided by this sensor.
