The interest in using the radiation detectors based on high resistive chromium-compensated GaAs (GaAs:Cr) in high energy physics and others applied fields has been growing steadily due to its numerous advantages over others classical materials. High radiation hardness at room temperature stands out and needs to be systematically investigated. In this paper an experimental study of the effect of 20.9 MeV electrons generated by the LINAC-200 accelerator on some properties of GaAs:Cr based sensors is presented. In parallel, Si sensors were irradiated at the same conditions, measured and analyzed in order to perform a comparative study. The target sensors were irradiated with the dose up to 1.5 MGy. The current-voltage characteristics, resistivity, charge collection efficiency and their dependences on the bias voltage and temperature were measured at different absorbed doses. An analysis of the possible microscopic mechanisms leading to the observed effects in GaAs:Cr sensors is presented in the article.

A new generation of 3D silicon pixel detectors with a small pixel size of 50$times$50 and 25$times$100 $mu$m$^{2}$ is being developed for the HL-LHC tracker upgrades. The radiation hardness of such detectors was studied in beam tests after irradiatio
n to HL-LHC fluences up to $1.4times10^{16}$ n$_{mathrm{eq}}$/cm$^2$. At this fluence, an operation voltage of only 100 V is needed to achieve 97% hit efficiency, with a power dissipation of 13 mW/cm$^2$ at -25$^{circ}$C, considerably lower than for previous 3D sensor generations and planar sensors.
In this work we study the performance of silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) light sensors after exposure to the JULIC cyclotron proton beam, of energy $sim$ 39 MeV, relative to their performance before exposure. The SiPM devices used in this study show a
significant change in their behavior and downward shift of their breakdown voltage by as much as $sim$ 0.4$pm$0.1 V. Single photon measurements appear to be no longer possible for the SiPMs under study after exposure to a dose of $sim$ 0.2 Gy (corresponding to an integrated proton flux of $sim$$phi_{p}$=1.06x10$^{8}$ p/cm$^{2}$). No visible damage to the surface of the devices was caused by the exposure.
We report radiation hardness tests performed at the Frascati Neutron Generator on silicon Photo-Multipliers, semiconductor photon detectors built from a square matrix of avalanche photo-diodes on a silicon substrate. Several samples from different ma
nufacturers have been irradiated integrating up to 7x10^10 1-MeV-equivalent neutrons per cm^2. Detector performances have been recorded during the neutron irradiation and a gradual deterioration of their properties was found to happen already after an integrated fluence of the order of 10^8 1-MeV-equivalent neutrons per cm^2.
The ATLAS experiment at the LHC will replace its current inner tracker system for the HL-LHC era. 3D silicon pixel sensors are being considered as radiation-hard candidates for the innermost layers of the new fully silicon-based tracking detector. 3D
sensors with a small pixel size of $mathrm{50 times 50~mu m^{2}}$ and $mathrm{25 times 100~mu m^{2}}$ compatible with the first prototype ASIC for the HL-LHC, the RD53A chip, have been studied in beam tests after uniform irradiation to $mathrm{5 times 10^{15}~n_{eq}/cm^{2}}$. An operation voltage of only 50 V is needed to achieve a 97% hit efficiency after this fluence.
Pixel detectors are used in the innermost part of the multi purpose experiments at LHC and are therefore exposed to the highest fluences of ionising radiation, which in this part of the detectors consists mainly of charged pions. The radiation hardne
ss of all detector components has thoroughly been tested up to the fluences expected at the LHC. In case of an LHC upgrade, the fluence will be much higher and it is not yet clear how long the present pixel modules will stay operative in such a harsh environment. The aim of this study was to establish such a limit as a benchmark for other possible detector concepts considered for the upgrade. As the sensors and the readout chip are the parts most sensitive to radiation damage, samples consisting of a small pixel sensor bump-bonded to a CMS-readout chip (PSI46V2.1) have been irradiated with positive 200 MeV pions at PSI up to 6E14 Neq and with 21 GeV protons at CERN up to 5E15 Neq. After irradiation the response of the system to beta particles from a Sr-90 source was measured to characterise the charge collection efficiency of the sensor. Radiation induced changes in the readout chip were also measured. The results show that the present pixel modules can be expected to be still operational after a fluence of 2.8E15 Neq. Samples irradiated up to 5E15 Neq still see the beta particles. However, further tests are needed to confirm whether a stable operation with high particle detection efficiency is possible after such a high fluence.
