  • Abstract
    Charge collection transients following a strike by an ionizing particle are computed for a multilayer N+PNN+ device at two different bias points. The results are consistent with experimental observations. Details of the current paths within the device are also shown and indicate that field funneling concepts do not directly apply to this structure.
