- Abstract
The use of the standard photovoltaic technique of texturing to reduce the reflectivity of silicon calorimetric light detectors was discussed. It was presumed that for normal-incident photons, the gain would be greater due to photons having two chances to be absorbed between surface pyramids. It was shown that, with the CaWO4 scintillating crystal used as light source, the time constant of the calorimeter should be adapted to the relatively slow light-emission times.
