Abstract :
We have conducted thermal measurements on a thermal prototype of a novel concept to construct silicon modules, using thermally conductive Pyrolytic Graphite as a heat spreader sandwiched between two single-sided silicon detectors. We have measured the temperature profile as a function of heating power at a coolant temperature of -10°C and ambient temperatures of 0, -5, -10°C and found that the temperature increase of the silicon detectors is below 3°C for realistic power levels
