Abstract

A proto-type silicon drift chamber has been tested mainly by using an LED. The characteristic behavior of the detector is discussed through the measurement of electron drift time. Under a special situation the anode signal showed the increasing rise time and the decreasing amplitude with the drift distance. The former is understood at least by the electro-static repulsion of the electron cloud, while the latter is suggestive of the trapping of electron to some impurity levels.
