  11. R&D towards smaller photon detector needs optical elements instead of pinhole focus mirrors lenses PANDA barrel DIRC focal plane detector two lenses for flat focal plane Oil H2O air SiO2 quartz bar air mirrors

  12. Y PANDA barrel DIRC y close to threshold: small variations in n(λ) cause large δΘ fused silica β=0.69 cos(Θ)=1 / βn(λ) β=0.72 Time of Propagation (TOP) measurement better 0.5ns allows to correct dispersion for high and low momenta→x,y,t→3D-DIRC x

  14. Dispersion Corrections different directions for different colours for a given time t different horizontal distances for different photon colours ToP ToP – Solution: Focussing – Solution: relevant for ToP narrow bands in wavelength dispersive prism component

  15. Time-of-Propagation design colour filters dichroic mirrors as colour filters allows two wavelength bands higher photon statistics small wavelength bands minimise dispersion effect +optimised photocathodes mirrors mirrors give different path lengths  self timing design • reflect • some • photons • several different path lengths mirrors allow longer path lengths  better relative time resolution 20mm fused silica radiator disc single photon resolution t~30-50ps required

  16. Time-of-Propagation design larger text 0 reflections 1 reflection 2 reflections 3 reflections 50 events time-of-propagation [ns]  [deg]

Focussing Lightguide radiator edge * LiF * SiO2 photo sensor strips fused silica (SiO2) radiator 10-15mm • * discrete lightguide no. • * angle in (r-z) plane • LiF for dispersion correction • photon extraction into lightguide • lifts up-down direction ambiguity • focussing inside lightguide * * lightguides

  19. Focussing & Chromatic Correction no mirror coating 1-dim aspheric surface total internal reflection angle independent of  not-perfect focussing as curvature is compromise (but good enough) light is only going upwards two boundary surfaces make chromatic dispersion correction angle-independent in first order light never leaves dense optical medium  good for phase space Focal Plane (dispersive direction) 1-dimensional readout
