Dear all,
I have a sort of academic question: which is a reference I could cite for the technique to calculate the weighting potential technique detailed in the manual (“Generating a weighting potential using TCAD and Allpix Squared”, page 170)?
Many thanks in advance and best regards,
Marco Bomben
Hi @mbomben
For this difference method we unfortunately do not have a reference, it is more a mix of common-knowledge and own trials to produce something sensible. We were trying to find a way of generating a weighting potential combining Ramo’s theorem and the idea to “set the electrode in question to unit potential and all others to ground” with the situation in MAPS detectors where we might have multiple biases applied to different electrodes.
If you happen to have a reference or come across one, I’d be really happy to add it to the manual!
Best
Simon
