✦ Synopsis

The silicon microstrip tracker is a major element of the DO detector upgrade at Fermilab. After a general overview of the silicon tracker design, results axe presented for a series of detector and electronics performance studies which include beam tests and proton irradiation. Charge sharing and strip-to-strip uniformity studies using an infrared laser are also presented.
