Abstract :
Special detectors have been developed for the NASA ISEE-C Cosmic Ray Telescope. These are Lidrifted silicon detectors 5 mm thick and 1500 mm2 area with the criteria that thickness variations on the whole area be less than ±10 ¿m and that the Li-diffused contact dead-layer not exceed 15 ¿m. Techniques used to fabricate and test these detectors are presented.
