Weightfield2

Weightfield2 is a 2D silicon detector simulator which allows to simulate Ultra-Fast detectors with inner gain.

Weightfield2 is based on the original Weightfield by HEPHY

Graphical interface



    Features:

  • calculates induced currents with Ramo's Theorem
  • solves Poisson's equation using Vdep (not from doping)
  • draws electric field
  • allows to set temperature
  • allows to simulate non uniform charge deposition
  • allows to set gain "by hand"
  • electronics simulator
  • batch mode
