Measurement of SEBc-s of HV Si diodes for high sensitivity HEH monitor
Abstract: The LHC beam dumping system serves to safely abort 2 counter rotating proton beams each with energy of up to 360 MJ and its reliable operation is crucial for the accelerator safety. The pulse generators operate at up to 29 kV and comprise 800 HV GTOs and 480 HV triggering IGBTs. All generators are installed underground in the galleries parallel to and shielded from LHC tunnel but some high energy hadrons (HEH) leak from the tunnel into the galleries via interconnecting cable ducts and can provoke Single Event Burnout (SEB) of HV semiconductors. In order to reduce the likelihood of SEB, the choice of HV semiconductors was based on their SEB cross-section and cable ducts were shielded by iron rods. High sensitivity HEH monitor under development is based on detection of protected SEB phenomenon in HV Si diodes. Measurement of accurate SEBc-s of diodes in use is crucial for its calibration.
