Low temperature process for diode termination of fully depleted high resistivity silicon radiation detectors that can be used for shallow entrance windows and thinned sensors

Fabrication of vertical diodes for radiation sensing using a low temperature microwave anneal is provided. This kind of anneal allows the back side processing to be performed after the front side processing is done without damaging the front side structures. This enables a simplified fabrication of thinned detectors compared to a conventional silicon on insulator process. Another feature that this technology enables is a thin entrance window for a detector that also serves as the doped diode termination. Such thin entrance windows are especially suitable for detection of low energy radiation.
