What is needed? We have gained a very good understanding of sensors performance and their properties: Simulations of charge collection and timing Measurements with HGTD sensors connected to discrete electronics The final goal is of course implementation of event digitization using the real data on damage and performance. This studies are ongoing. The first step would however be improvement of the DPS with more realistic performance over the lifetime of the experiment. Produces functions: Vop( ?, ??) CC( ?, ??) at Vbias<VSEB most probable charge ????( ?, ??, ??) taking into account the factorization of the timing resolution Module ON/OFF In order to do so we need to prepare/a preparing a function/class which reads the latest geometry (position of the modules) reads the fluence profiles of charged hadrons Include the parametrization of the measured and simulated properties: Charge collection as a function of fluence ration of acceptor removal for charged hadrons and neutrons measured time resolution broken down into components with discrete electronics (TB,Sr90) ALTIROC performance in terms of contributions to timing: jitter(CC), TDC, ToA/ToT residuals 2 D.

What can we miss for now? What can be missed in the first steps, but will be implemented later once full digitization is available: Influence of thermal gradient across the sensor (~0.5 ps/C at fixed bias voltage UCSC boards) and power dissipation effects on the sensor performance. limitations of the bias voltage due to gradient of fluence across the sensor (~15% maximum difference in fluence across the sensor at low radia) variations of the individual sensor/module properties (sensors with Vbd~165 V and those with Vbd~195 V have different radiation hardness) ?? ~ ? ??? ~????? ?? ??? ??? accurate evaluation of inter-pad performance (effective IP gap and its changes with fluence) Charge screening effects related also to magnetic field maps 3 D.

Landau fluctuation parametrization LF depend on both electric field and gain the higher the gain the larger the impact on the time resolution fluctuations are amplified for the gain the gradient in the electric field means variation in the drift time of the fluctuating charges ideally saturated drift velocity in the sensor at very high fields IHEP-IME preproduction @100V@-30C 1/|E| follows from velocity saturation The field in the sensors is not uniform, but average field |E|=Vbias/D is a good approximation. HPK-P2-W43 @ 165V@-30C Note that for the most of HGTD we will be to run at ~>15 fC. Lower charge will lead to less LF. GEANT4 simulation A perfect ToA/ToT or CFD correction was assumed in the measurements. 5 D. DANNHEIM, M. ZHAO, G. KRAMBERGER, SENSORS: ACCEPTANCE, HGTD WEEK 5/2/2025
ALTIROC Jitter Assumption of the Dirac pulse fast injection We will need to have at least threshold of 3 fC which requires the MPV charge of at least 5 fC in order to meet specs on efficiency and noise occupancy. Jitter is a function of the noise so we need to know also Noise(leakage current). 6 D. DANNHEIM, M. ZHAO, G. KRAMBERGER, SENSORS: ACCEPTANCE, HGTD WEEK 5/2/2025
ALTIROC TDC/Clock/ TDC/Clock/Residuals from ToA/ToT We need better statistics and knowledge about that, but: Laser measurements show combined resolution of ~25 ps If jitter is around 14 ps TDC/clock dist. leads to 20 ps ToA/ToT time walk correction? ??? ideally small charge and leakage current dependent (radiation) charge and voltage dependent (radiation) Independent on charge/leakage 7 D.
