HASPIDE: a project for the development of hydrogenated amorphous silicon radiation sensors on a flexible substrate

Giovanni De Cesare, Sylvain Dunand, Jonathan Emanuel Thomet, Mikaël Martino, Luca Massimiliano Antognini, Matthew James Large

Hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) is a material with a very good radiation hardness and with the possibility of deposition on flexible substrates like Polyimide (PI). Exploiting these properties, the HASPIDE (Hydrogenated Amorphous Silicon PIxels DEt ...
