| Popis: | Following the Phase-II upgrade during Long Shutdown (LS3), the LHC aims to reach a peak instantaneous luminosity of $7.5\times 10^{34}$cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$, which corresponds to an average of around 200 inelastic proton-proton collisions per beam-crossing (every 25 ns). To cope with these conditions, the ATLAS Inner Detector will be replaced by a new all-silicon system -- the Inner Tracker (ITk). The ITk will be operational for more than ten years, during which time ATLAS is expected to record approximately 4000 fb$^{-1}$ of data. The ITk's pixel sub-system is based on hybrid pixel modules with new silicon sensors and readout chips. These studies focus on testbeam campaigns undertaken to study the spatial resolution and efficiencies of hybrid pixel detector modules based on the first large-structure prototype front-end readout chip -- the RD53A -- using planar silicon sensors. These devices have been irradiated to replicate the effect of the high radiation environment present during operation in the ATLAS detector. Results for devices using sensors with different punch-through bias structures and using different readout chips are summarised. Those with sensors incorporating a punch-through bias structure are found to exhibit systematically lower efficiency than those without, as a result of local areas of relative inefficiency around the punch-through dots. Despite this, all devices measured are found to satisfy the requirement of 97% efficiency at $V_\mathrm{bias}=400$ V after being irradiated to end-of-life fluence. Comment: 26 pages, 18 figures, prepared for submission to JINST. There have been some minor language changes for clarity and consistency. A more appropriate diagram for the punchthrough biasing structures discussed has replaced the previous one. Some plots have been enlarged for readability. There was a small bug in Figure 10b, which has been amended. Results and conclusions are unaffected |
