Description
Recent results are presented on the design and testing of silicon sensors for the ILC
vertex detector and of the associated readout electronics. The sensors discussed are
the Column Parallel Charge-Coupled Device (CPCCD) and the In-situ Storage Image
Sensor (ISIS), both of which have the potential to satisfy the requirements for
operation at the ILC. Progress with the development of the CPCCD is presented and the
programme that will lead to readout at the speeds needed for operation at the ILC
discussed. A radiation damage model based on full FEA and a simplified model has also
been developed.
Measurements of the performance of the first ISIS are shown and progress with the
design of the next generation of these devices discussed. Studies of the column
parallel readout chip that will allow the fast readout and online processing of the
data from the CPCCD are also presented.
