摘要:

在惰性液体探测器中,闪烁光探测对于识别来自束流、天体物理或太阳源的中微子相互作用候选事件至关重要。大型单块探测器通常将光电倍增管这类高效光传感器安装在电场外部,而对于希望最大化有效体积的模块化探测器而言,该方案并不可行。ArgonCube光读出系统探测器(ArCLight)是可在紧邻的模块化探测器内部及电场中工作的大面积薄型波长转换(WLS)面板。构成ArCLight主体结构的WLS塑料表面涂覆有四苯基丁二烯(TPB),并层叠有二向色镜片,它与六个硅光电倍增管(SiPMs)耦合。本论文对比了适用于大表面积的TPB涂覆技术,并介绍了大规模生产的质量控制方法。

英文摘要:

The detection of scintillation light in noble-liquid detectors is necessary for identifying neutrino interaction candidates from beam, astrophysical, or solar sources. Large monolithic detectors typically have highly efficient light sensors, like photomultipliers, mounted outside their electric field. This option is not available for modular detectors that wish to maximize their active volume. The ArgonCube light readout system detectors (ArCLights) are large-area thin-wavelength-shifting (WLS) panels that can operate in highly proximate modular detectors and within the electric field. The WLS plastic forming the bulk structure of the ArCLight has Tetraphenyl Butadiene (TPB) and sheets of dichroic mirror layered across its surface. It is coupled to a set of six silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs). This publication compares TPB coating techniques for large surface areas and describes quality control methods for large-scale production.
