    In this paper, we report on the radiation resistance of 50-micron thick Low Gain Avalanche Diodes (LGAD) manufactured at the Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK) employing different dopings in the gain layer. LGADs with a gain layer made of Boron, Boron low-diffusion, Gallium, Carbonated Boron and Carbonated Gallium have been designed and successfully produced at FBK. These sensors have been exposed to neutron fluences up to ϕn∼3⋅1016n∕cm2 and to proton fluences up to ϕp∼9⋅1015p∕cm2 to test their radiation resistance. The experimental results show that Gallium-doped LGAD are more heavily affected by the initial acceptor removal mechanism than those doped with Boron, while the addition of Carbon reduces this effect both for Gallium and Boron doping. The Boron low-diffusion gain layer shows a higher radiation resistance than that of standard Boron implant, indicating a dependence of the initial acceptor removal mechanism upon the implant density.
