R&D tasks for the year 2007

Design and production of :

• Double-sided microstrip silicon sensors (with key specifications similar to the CBM Silicon Tracking System

(thickness – 300 µm, active area – 73 × 40 mm2, number of strips – 2 × 768, strip width – 38 µm, strip pitch – 95 µm, full depletion voltage – 70 V,

leakage current – 2 nA/strip, breakdown voltage – 100 V, AC-coupling ) – 1 sample is available from the IMD (Kiev)

• Support structure (carbon fiber) ( material budget not exceeding the one of the sensor, i.e. 0.3% X0) – designed and ordered at the AEROPLAST (Kiev)

• Microcable (30 cm long, 768 lines, 95 µm pitch, connecting a silicon sensor with readout electronics) – designed and ordered at the IMD (Kiev) (currently - 4 x 7.5 cm = 30 cm, later – as a single 30 cm long cable)

• Pitch adapter (95 µm to 50.7 µm, connecting a r/o cable to r/o chips) – not yet specified ???• Hybrids for readout chips and RC filter circuits.

(The readout chips will be provided by GSI) – not yet specified ???

• Cooling infrastructure and temperature monitoring - designed and ordered at the AEROPLAST (Kiev)

AEROPLAST (Kiev)

AEROPLAST (Kiev) - a possibility of a design and production of big supporting frames/boxes (ST – LHCb type)

LHCb Silicon Tracker – supporting boxes with cooling pipes

Cooling infrastructure and temperature monitoring for the CBM detector module to be built soon at the AEROPLAST (Kiev).Cooling inside of the supporting ladders is also under consideration

Microcable (30 cm long, 768 lines, 95 µm pitch, connecting a silicon sensor with a readout electronics) – ordered at the IMD (Kiev) (currently - 4 x 7.5 cm = 30 cm, later – as a single 30 cm long cable)

Institute of Microdevices (Kiev)Microcables may have up to few hundreds of leads up to 36 microns wide,

leads pitch - up to 80 microns; Cables withstand up to 100 000 double bends with radius of 5 mm temperatures from - 19 to + 250 deg. С. Methods of assembling – ultrasonic bonding ( Al, Cu, Ni, Ag, Au coats) or fluxless soldering;

Uncertainties for the module prototype construction

• Pitch adapter (95 µm to 50.7 µm, connecting a r/o cable to r/o

chips) – not yet specified ???• Hybrids for readout chips and

RC filter circuits.

(The readout chips will be provided by GSI) – not yet specified ???

Pitch Adapter - flat cable – after clarification -production at the Institute of Microdevices

- Similar to the LHCb – pitch adapter (Ch. Bauer)

ASSEMBLY of the Module prototype

• 1st prototype – the design similar to the long ladders of the LHCb Silicon Tracker – modified for the double-sided version of sensors

• Real devices - at the IAP NASU (Sumi).

Mechanical Assembly of Real CBM Modules– a possibility at the mechanical Workshop of the Institute for Applied Physics, NASU – Construction of mechanical assembling tools as on the picture was discussed.

Prototype Module assembly scheme-similar to the HERA-B double-sided

Supporting frames – separated: two for hybrids with readout chips and one for the Sensor (to prevent heating of the sensor)

TEST – Quality assurance system - final goal

What has to be checked:

1. Mechanical mounting2. Electrical connections 3. Cooling flow, temperature

What has to be tested/measured(quality assurance):

1. Operating channels 2. Full depletion voltage3. Leakage currents4. Signal/Noise
