Abstract
We present the characteristics of a new multidetector based on monolithic silicon telescopes: MONTE. By using high-energy ion implantation techniques, the ÎE and residual energy stages of such telescopes have been integrated on the same silicon chip, obtaining extremely thin ÎE stages of the order of 1 μm. This allowed one to obtain a very low charge identification energy threshold and a very good β background suppression in reactions induced by radioactive ion beams. The multidetector has a modular structure and can be assembled in different geometrical configurations according to experimental needs.
