Silicon Carbide (SiC) detectors have emerged as a strong candidate in nuclear and particle physics as an alternative to silicon charged particle detectors and as a possible material for biomedical sensors and dosimeters, given their biocompatibility and relative insensitivity to light. This contribution presents the ongoing activity on a SiC detection system with a segmented geometry, where the effects coming from the interactions between different pads were analyzed as well as the cross-talk, the interaction between electric fields of different pads, the interpad contribution and the edge effects. Such a system will be developed for different purposes, from dose measurements in radiation dosimetry to real-time beam monitoring.

Abstract
Silicon Carbide (SiC) detectors have emerged as a strong candidate in nuclear and particle physics as an alternative to silicon charged particle detectors and as a possible material for biomedical sensors and dosimeters, given their biocompatibility and relative insensitivity to light. This contribution presents the ongoing activity on a SiC detection system with a segmented geometry, where the effects coming from the interactions between different pads were analyzed as well as the cross-talk, the interaction between electric fields of different pads, the interpad contribution and the edge effects. Such a system will be developed for different purposes, from dose measurements in radiation dosimetry to real-time beam monitoring.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
