The electromagnetic endcap
• Basic unit –Supercrystal 55 array of crystals Carbon-fibre alveolar
• PbWO4 crystals Radiation hard X0 = 8.9 mm
Mechanically fragile Fast scintillation
90% light in 100ns Low light yield
~50 /MeV
B W Kennedy, CCLRC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory
Challenges for ECAL photodetector
• High radiation environment Dose is strong function of rapidity (ie angle to p
beams) Barrel: Up to 4 kGy in 10 years LHC running Endcap: 4-200 kGy
• Fast response required LHC beam crossing time = 25ns
• Low light yield from PbWO4
~50 photons/MeV need internal gain
• CMS choices Barrel – Avalanche PhotoDiodes Endcap – Vacuum PhotoTriodes (VPTs)

Photocathode response
• Uniformity of photocathode response Measured by
colleagues in Split, Croatia
Flat response over photocathode area
• Quantum efficiency typically 22% Thanks are due to N.Godinovic, I.Puljak, and
I.Soric, University of Split, Croatia, for the use of this data.

VPT response in magnetic field
• Characteristic response of VPT vs angle at B = 1.8T vs magnetic field at angle of 15 nb: flat response v field above 1T
