  • Abstract
    The use of CCDs in future linear collider experiments will require immunity to large neutron fluences, in excess of 109/cm2 /year. The effects on charge transfer efficiency of neutron induced bulk damage are presented along with a demonstration of a technique to fill the traps with sacrificial charge. Operation is then possible at fluences in excess of 1010/cm2
