Development of high-resolution timing technique in the past 25 years
Abstract
This paper reviews recent progress in high-resolution timing, rate capability, and aging performance of particle detectors in the context of developments over the past 25 years. It focuses on MCP, SiPM, LGAD, 3D silicon, and SiEM detectors and compares their performance with that of gaseous timing detectors. In addition, preliminary results from a simplified simulation program, Mini-TCAD, are presented, indicating that hexagonal 3D silicon cells may provide better drift-time uniformity and timing resolution than square cells.
