Abstract :
A 12 cm long silicon microstrip detector module with a fan geometry has been designed and constructed. The performance of the detector has been studied in a test beam at CERN. Results are presented on the hit efficiency and the position resolution as a function of position along the strips. With a hit efficiency of 99.5% and a spatial resolution of typically 35 μm the performance of these detectors exceeds that of other candidate technologies for the precision forward tracker of the ATLAS inner detector.
