Abstract
Super Tau-Charm Facility (STCF) is a next-generation high luminosity electron–positron collider facility and is currently one of the major options for accelerator-based particle physics experiment in China. The crystal-based electromagnetic calorimeter (EMC) with undoped CsI is a major sub-system of the STCF spectrometer. To fulfill the increasing physics requirements on measurement precision and the suffering of radiation, improving the detected light yield is an important task of STCF EMC R&D. This paper studies a “wavelength shifting in propagation” scheme for STCF EMC using the nanostructured organosilicon luminophore (NOL). The studies are performed by both Monte Carlo simulation and experimental tests. The light yield is proved to be improved by 159% in the experiment. Meanwhile, a study of the NOL’s radiation hardness is carried out to verify the reliability of the NOL. No obvious degradation in the performance is observed with the total ionization dose up to 100krad, far beyond the total radiation dose of STCF with ten years of operation.
