Effects of sensor_resistivity

Hello everyone,

I hope you are doing well.

I have a question regarding my simulation study. I am simulating HVCMOS sensors with a thickness of 300 μm. We have three chips with different resistivities, and we want to study how the cluster size and total charge change as the resistivity increases. When I set the parameter “sensor_resistivity” to the values we have, I couldn’t notice any changes in the results. This makes me question whether this parameter works as intended, or if it requires additional parameters such as depletion voltage or doping concentration to produce accurate results.

I hope I have explained my question clearly. Any advice or help will be highly appreciated. I have attached the configuration files for your reference.
best regards,
Fajer

Dear @Fajer

There currently is no such parameter. Have a look at the documentation for the electric field reader module:

You can either set a bias and depletion voltage, or a bias voltage and depletion depth.
