Allpix Squared is a versatile, open-source simulation framework for silicon pixel detectors. Its goal is to ease the implementation of detailed simulations for both single sensors and more complex setups with multiple detectors. While originally created for silicon detectors in high-energy physics, it is capable of simulating a wide range of detector types for various application scenarios,...
In this talk, the CosmiX cosmic ray model will be presented, and in general the Monte Carlo simulations of ionizing particle tracks in image sensors, as well as in microelectronics will be discussed.
The French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) is deeply implied in the development of ALFA (Astronomical Large Format Arrays), a 2048x2048 short-wave infrared (SWIR) detector array with a 15 µm pixel pitch and a cutoff wavelength of 2.1 µm. The development is mainly funded by the European Space Agency (ESA), for the future space missions, and by the French national...
