Description
Amorphous selenium (aSe), widely utilized in x-ray medical imaging, has emerged as a promising material for liquid noble detectors in particle physics. This work investigates the temperature and electric field-dependent charge transport properties of a novel aSe-based photo-sensor and its integration into a multimodal charge plus light sensor for use in pixelated liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPCs). This work will present the design and fabrication of the first prototype, preliminary results from first tests, and showcase the sensor's response to low photon yields.
