Follow the links for some pictures (microscrope photos) of ATLAS detectors:
The UK barrel n-on-n ATLAS detector (1996 design by Cambridge and QMW) is of nstrip-on-nbulk design with polysilicon biassing and 768 strips (plus 2 dummies) at 80micron pitch. Overall dimensions are 64x63.6mm, with an active area of 62x61.6mm. The design uses a multiguard edge termination with the bias rail contacted to an implant to act as the first guard. There are two pstop isolation masks, allowing the option of either individual pstop or common pframe isolation. The current design fully satisfies 1996 ATLAS detector specs. The following drawings are available:

The UK barrel p-on-n ATLAS detector (1998 design by Cambridge and QMW)
is of pstrip-on-nbulk design with
polysilicon biassing and
768 strips (plus 2 dummies) at 80micron pitch.
Overall dimensions are 64x63.6mm, with an active area of 62x61.6mm.
The design uses
a multiguard edge termination with the bias rail contacted to an
implant to act as the first guard.
Some images or postscript files are available for this design:
The circular fiducials should be background-free, ie metal on a
non-metal background, or holes in metal. The minimum area
of uniform background is illustrated here.
