We have developed a technique for producing double-sided multi-channel silicon c stal acoustic detectors (SiCADs nm thick films of supercon d . These detectors, which are operated at = 400 mK an K use 40 ucting Ti as the phonon sensors, have been used in timecoincidence experiments to study the prop
## BACKGROUND: In radiation therapy, the peripheral dose (PD) -the dose outside the geometric boundaries of the radiation fi eld -is of clinical importance. A metal oxide semiconductor fi eld effect transistor (MOSFET) detector is used to estimate the peripheral dose.
We report on the simultaneous measurement of charges and phonons created by particle interactions in a semiconductor at 20 mK. We find that the phonon energy is correlated to the number of charges collected, an effect we model in terms of capture of charges by impurities.
