Recen% developed near W-photosensors are currently adopted in those applications where high sensitivity and good imaging capabilities are required, especially in fields such as astroparticle physics and medical imaging. An example of such applications is the camera of the Schwarzschild Couder Medium Size Telescope prototype (pSCT) which is in construction within the Cherenkov Telescope Array experiment. The camera consists of 177 photo-detection modules grouped into sectors of 25 modules, each based on matrixes of 64 6mm à 6mm pixels of SiUcon PhotomultipUers (SiPMs).

Abstract
Recen% developed near W-photosensors are currently adopted in those applications where high sensitivity and good imaging capabilities are required, especially in fields such as astroparticle physics and medical imaging. An example of such applications is the camera of the Schwarzschild Couder Medium Size Telescope prototype (pSCT) which is in construction within the Cherenkov Telescope Array experiment. The camera consists of 177 photo-detection modules grouped into sectors of 25 modules, each based on matrixes of 64 6mm à 6mm pixels of SiUcon PhotomultipUers (SiPMs). Sensors produced by the Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK) in Italy are currently under investigation. Here we present a complete characterization of these highly sensitive near UV sensors, the assembly procedure and metrology results on several focal plane elements.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
