| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed pixel detectors based on wide gap semiconductor materials(i.e. diamond and silicon carbide) for light dark matter search. The wide gap semiconductor containing carbon improves the sensitivity for light dark matter search.
The electrode size of the detectors is about 100um x 100um. The detector shows two or three orders of magnitudes leakage reduction compared to a silicon pixel detector, and the detector capacitance of the diamond pixel is one half the silicon pixel detector. We confirmed developed pixel detectors have enough S/N for our purpose.
In order to evaluate the detectors low noise front-end integrated circuit is developed.The equivalent noise charge(ENC) is less than 100 electron which satisfies S/N for our evaluation of the detectors.
