Interference with LHC machine Interference with LHC machine LEMIC, January 2001: Presentation of the VELO Vacuum Chamber
design was well received, see also conclusion from A.Rossi. The subsequent discussion in the LHC technical board was also
quite positive (unofficial). BUT, BUT, possible request from the LHC machine:
Downtime of LHC in case of a worst case accident should be limited to 2 weeks.
This means for LHCb: Replace VELO Vacuum Chamber with spare beam pipe RICH1, inner tracker ? continue LHC running without LHCb
Detailed planning needs to be worked out how this could happen.Started by M.Ferro-Luzzi in context of risk analysis.
Need a spare beam pipe. Fast switch to spare beam pipe needs to be taken into account in design for Station1 and Rich1.

Effect of RadiationEffect of Radiationfrom Rose collaboration based on diodes NOT directly comparable to strip detectors
VELO: ~ 1 x 1014 neq cm-2 / year at r=8mm
Increase of depletion voltage after irradiation.
Lifetime of the VELO is limited by the maximum voltage which the detectors can stand.Because of small strip length and low temperature, the VELO is not limited by the increasing current.Detector will slowly die from inside to outside: The region at r>11mm will last twice as long as the region at r=8mm.
depletion voltage ~ d2
use thinner detectors
BUT signal ~ d

What is the difference of a n-strip and What is the difference of a n-strip and p-strip detector after irradiation ?p-strip detector after irradiation ?
Charge collection efficiency and resolution of an irradiated double sided silicon microstrip detector operated at cryogenic temperatures.
Nucl.Instrum.Meth.A440:17-37,2000
Measurements done using a double sided detector
If the detector is not fully depleted, charge is spread over a large area on the p-side.
Effect only seen for small strip pitches (<100m)
Confirmed by Y2k testbeam results and laser tests.Conclusion: p-strip detectors need to be fully depleted !
double pitch
acts as insulating layer

One word about oxygenated siliconOne word about oxygenated silicon
A higher CCE is reached for a lower bias voltage with oxygenated silicon compared to standard silicon.
HOWEVER, the voltage, where maximum CCE is reached, is not so much different between oxygenated and standard silicon.
Oxygen could help in case of n-strip detectors.

What can p-strip detectors offer ?What can p-strip detectors offer ?Or why consider p-strip detectors after all ?
p-strip detectors can have smaller strip pitchesn-strips need to be isolated. Done by using p-stops, p-spray. Limits minimal strip pitch.
p-strip detectors can be made thinnerHamamatsu produces n-strip detectors with 300m thickness only. BUT, MICRON accepted order for 200m thin detectors.
p-strip detectors are cheaperexpected saving ~30% (ATLAS). But money is not an issue. Sensor cost is only 10-15% of total VELO cost.

Optimization StudyOptimization StudyGeneral Constraints
Alignment, handling of detectors: use 1800 detectors instead of 3600 detectors as in the TP reduce outer radius from 6cm to 4.5cm for fitting on 6-inch wafer reduce distance between stations and increase number of stations 25(17)
RF shield, wakefield guide, secondary vacuum: use RF-box with corrugated structure which acts as RF-shield and as
wakefield guide have to use 250m thick Aluminum, because
of maximum pressure and RF penetration

Optimization StudyOptimization StudySensor Geometry
Two solutions were proposed: Conservative detector, 300 m thin
r-detector, strip pitch: inner region: 40m medium region: 60m
outer region: 80m
phi detector: inner region: 40-114m outer region: 40- 72m 50 stereo angle
(strip geometry similar to TP) Ultimate detector, 220 m thin
half the strip pitch to above
NOTE: Too many channels ! For realistic design, change strip pitch linearly as function of radius and use floating strips.
From testbeam (SCTA chip):S/N20 with 300m thin detector expect S/N 10 for 150m expect S/N 15 for 220m
Available as p-on-n and n-on-n
p-on-n: 32.5m and 24.4m existn-on-n: 32.5m and 24.4m ordered
The performance of many different designs was studied.A clear improvement was seen by going closer to the beam, rmin=8 mm (10 mm)
