Recently we received our new MCP-PMT of which I presented a first test in this post. Today I am posting the first serious characterization of the device. All the details can be found in this document which I embed below: As a summary, I measured a time resolution of about 22-24 ps for the MCP-PMT …
Characterization of the new MCP-PMT as a timing detector for beta particles Read More »
I designed a new “flavor” of the Santa Cruz board that is basically the same circuit but with a smaller layout, such that I can place more of them simultaneously in the climate chamber, and also thinking in an easier mounting in the TCT with cooling. In the first tests I made yesterday, the board …
Today I was able to finally perform the very first timing measurement with our TCT at UZH. In this post I will describe the setup and the results. Setup description Below there is a block diagram of the setup: The pulsed infrared laser[1]1064 nm, part of our Particulars TCT. is coupled to an optic fiber. …
In a previous post I presented a brief bibliographical research on what is supposed to happen in a silicon detector when 1) a MIP particle passes through it and 2) when an infrared laser pulse is shined onto it. Today I want to bring this to real life and see what I get. I am …
