Silicon carbide (SiC) detectors recently received an increased interest in the scientific community for their application in several fields such as medical one and nuclear physics. In this context, a part of the SAMOTHRACE (Sicilian Micro and Nano Technology Research and Innovation Center) project aims at developing silicon carbide detectors to be used as dosimeter, micro-dosimeter and beam monitor. In this contribution, the first results on the characterization of two types of SiC detectors will be presented: the devices have an active area of ≃ 1 cm2 and a thickness of 10 μm and 100 μm, respectively.

Abstract

Silicon carbide (SiC) detectors recently received an increased interest in the scientific community for their application in several fields such as medical one and nuclear physics. In this context, a part of the SAMOTHRACE (Sicilian Micro and Nano Technology Research and Innovation Center) project aims at developing silicon carbide detectors to be used as dosimeter, micro-dosimeter and beam monitor. In this contribution, the first results on the characterization of two types of SiC detectors will be presented: the devices have an active area of ≃ 1 cm2 and a thickness of 10 μm and 100 μm, respectively.
