摘要
A new prototype of large area (20 x 20 mm(2)) monolithic silicon telescope with an ultrathin Delta E stage (1 Gun) has been built and tested. A particular mask for the ground electrode has been developed to improve the charge collection reducing the induction between the E and Delta E stages. A special designed preamplifier has been used for the readout of the signal from the Delta E stage to overcome the problem of the large input capacitance (40 nF). A rather low energy threshold charge discrimination has been obtained. Small side effects due to the electric field deformation near the ground electrode were observed and quantified.
