Hybrid Detector: The High Voltage detector with background rejection
SuperCDMS interleaved Z-sensitive Ionization and Phonon(iZIP) detectors have shown great success in discriminating electron recoils and nuclear recoils, while the High Voltage (HV) detectors have reached very low (~ a few eV) energy thresholds by sacrificing that discrimination. This talk focuses on a novel phonon-mediated two-stage silicon detector that retains both an excellent threshold performance of the HV detector and maintain the iZIP-style background discrimination.
