For the first time a 200 tun thin silicon detector, grown using an ordinary floating zone technique, has been shown to exhibit a level discrimination thanks to the fine segmentation. Light-charged particles down to few MeV have been separated, including their punch-through. A coaxial HPGe detector in time coincidence has further confirmed the quality of the particle discrimination. %K Silicon detector %K Light-charged particles %K Digital pulse shape analysis %K Particle identification %K Gamma-ray spectroscopy %R 10.1016/j.nima.2014.07.054 %U https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nima.2014.07.054 %P 241-246
