Slides Closeout_DiamondPreparation.pptx

Minutes for Session: Diamond Preparation & Characterization
 
R.Stone, B. Harrop: RIE diamond processing and results
 
Q (Lohmann): RIE expensive. For more then few um, first mechanical polish. Since already polished, where is the ffect?
A: Low tech, cheap process. Need remove material since surface is bad
 
Q (Lange): Picture with step. Where do little dots come from?
A: Minor defects. Always present.
Q (Lange): Are they in the bulk? Or do they show up when RIE?
A: Are there before RIE and aft
 
Q (Dabrowski): Slide 12. Top right plot. Spike when changing HV. Polarization?
A: Yes.
Q: Stabilizes at 1200V why no spikes?
A: Already at full CCD, spike cant go higher.
 
Q: What when off and on when already at full ccd
A:  No overshoot.
 
Q: Rate of source used for CCD.
A: ~ 10Hz PMT triggers with ~ 1mm collimator opening.
 
Q (Guthoff): Maybe micro cracks from mechanical polishing the problem. Polish + RIE would not be beneficial then.
A: Studies for needed amount of RIE ongoing. Influence of mechanical polish not yet known.
 
Comment (Schnetzer): Option to remove more material: Process more diamond at once to be more cost efficient when more RIE is needed.
 
Q(Afanaciev): What metallization is used?
A: Sputtered Ti/W alloy, one layer only
 
Q(Afanaciev): Why not Ti Pt Au?
A: For pixel W is better!
 
 
M.Hempel: Diamond measurements in Zeuthen
 
Slide 11:
Q: What dose to diamond?
A: A few Gy. Relatively low dose.
Looks strange, difficult to reproduce.
MIP pulse is not smaller after this dose, but broader. Maybe high current.
Q:X-axis, counts is how much charge?
A: Unknown
Comment: Signal size is reasonable.
 
Small number of poly diamonds. Atlas buys whole wafers, put metal dots all over wafer and measure each dot. Huge variation of performance of material. When order small numbers maybe one buys diamonds rejected by Atlas.
 
 
E. Griesmayer: Diamond Preparation for LHC
 
Diamonds for Atlas and LHC.
 
Characterize diamonds:
 
Optical: Often seen: black inclusion. Several 100 um. Problem for single particle measurement. Diamonds are returned.
 
Electronic: IV. Years ago often nice curve.
It curve: charge up of the diamond. ~ 5 seconds time constant
 
Often seen huge distortion: nA currents. In It curve offset that does not disappear.  Three time constants
 
 
Electronics:
3 amps:  1 fast, 1 precise (spectroscopic) and intermediate (broadband, 2Ghz)
 
Suggestion to use TCT measurement to obtain doping level in diamond.
 
K. Afanaciev: Investigation of Detector Properties of Diamond-on-Iridium Sensors
 
No questions

51 BPTX

Speaker: Brian Pollack

Slides BPTX_Summary_Zeuthen.pdf

BPTX minutes:

Andrey: Scope Based Algorithms

Talk will be mostly algo sw

BPTX, 175m from IP, connected to scopes, goes to DAQ computer, python scripts, publish to DIP/HTML/ASCII

Two identical scopes, Timing and Bunches, (different orbit sources), SW runs and measures: ΔT, phases, bunch pattern, wrongBucketFlag, pulse integrals, pulse length

DIP goes global and local, ASCII local, HTML access from .cms network

Who uses info? Timing: LHC (cogging), L1 Trigger (bunch pattern, cogging),  TTC (phases) Bunching: Nobody cares

Cogging: time difference between B1 and B2, done per BX, σ~10ps, 0.1ns ~ 1.5cm in z

p-Pb cogging: beams are not locked, cogging cannot be calculated with Timing, but can be with Bunches (now someone cares about it?)

Bunch Pattern: abandon BPTX gating signals at L1 and use LHC bunch config instead.  BPTX will be relegated to cross-checker, a sad fate indeed.

Monitoring: Tell Trigger Shifter about the html page, it’s nice, maybe make a simplified ‘Shifter Version’ because shifters are simple

Time performance: Timing takes 14 seconds, Bunches takes 35, (atlas takes 3 seconds....).  Andrey thinks python is too slow, switch to C/C++ (will take more work)? But who even cares? This isn’t a race! (update: it is almost always a race)

Instabilities: scopes crash, update firmware, jiggle the cable, turn it on and off? Make the code better? cron-job to restart crappy code

What should we do differently? Use Bunches as main scope.  Remove fluff/cruft from analysis code, publish minimum info to DIP.  Change code language?

Questions: Arkady: firmware? fans busted, overheating? new scope has best firmware!

Andrezj: possible to calculate bunch intensities? yes within 5%, but needs more studies to do better.

Someone: Why did you screw up the code in the first place? Old C++ code was 12 lines and did not respond well to changing starting parameters.  Python prevented crawling around on the ground to tweak parameters.  But maybe Andrey needs to crawl more?

Anne: Ever use external trigger? yes. Can you make an orbit the external trigger? Can we get around and just use one scope? yes, if you believe phase does not change.  but that’s a lot of faith

Vlad:  Atlas is not gunna update their BTPX

Me: why dont we just get a better scope with more inputs?  it’s super expensive (100k+)

Anne: BPTX Hardware

Hardware has been stable.  Scope+software not so much.  Caused horrible strife among shifters.

Timing: Keep HW same. Update scope firmware/fans.  Move cogging to Bunches.  Write down priorities.  Include bptx in DQM.  We need to debug the code, obviously.

BPTX going forward: PCIe-2ch Acqui card, lots of stats
