  2. 1. Overview of the group’s R&D and its capabilities
    Prof. A Bevan (Queen Mary)
    26/11/2020, 14:05
    An introduction to QMUL, the facilities at the disposal of the group and a brief overview of some highlights including silicon detector instrument development, pushing the envelope with novel application of thin silicon detectors, using novel materials such as perovskites and automation of data processing and analysis.

  3. 2. Radiation environment simulation and hardness testing
    Dr I Dawson (Queen Mary)
    26/11/2020, 14:20
    Computational simulation and modelling plays an important role in understanding how detector systems cope in challenging radiation environments such as those found in the space, nuclear and accelerator industries. I will give examples of how we use high-fidelity simulation tools (e.g. FLUKA, GEANT4) for this purpose and for optimising product design. I will also discuss some of the irradiation...

  4. 3. Organic semiconductor development
    Dr T Kreouzis (Queen Mary)
    26/11/2020, 14:30
    Organic semiconductors (OSCs) are cheap, easy to process and scalable to large area devices. As a result of decades of experience with OSCs at QMUL, we have overcome many problems traditionally associated with their stability to develop long lived diode and transistor based radiation detectors. We have total control the whole chain from precursor organic molecule synthesis for many materials...

  5. 4. Radiation damage in optical materials
    Prof. P Hobson (Queen Mary)
    26/11/2020, 14:40
    Radiation damage to optical materials is a critical limiting factor in many sensors systems. I will discuss radiation-induced absorption in scintillators and fluorescent wavelength shifters and also in materials, primarily glasses, used as faceplates in photomultiplier tubes and in camera lenses. I will use examples from Particle Physics and Space Science and discuss the use of optical ray...
