Many of our sensors were installed in the previous LHC, and they contributed to the discovery of the Higgs boson. This HL-LHC upgrade required significant improvements from the previous product specification, such as one-digit-higher radiation hardness, suppression of increased dark current, and a substantial increase in the number of channels . To overcome these challenges, stealth dicing...
One of the important challenges in the current radiation detector applications, as we advance in the further integration of the systems, is the cooling of the detectors. The larger heat densities, combined with the complexity of hybrid detector assemblies, complicate the full integration of the sensors, electronics, and services in the whole system. In order to overcome these difficulties...
In high-energy physics, upgrades for particle detectors and studies on future particle detectors are largely based on silicon sensors as tracking devices. Consequently, there is a need to investigate silicon sensor concepts that offer large-area coverage and cost-efficiency.
Sensors based on the CMOS imaging technology present such an alternative silicon sensor concept for tracking detectors....
The Inner Detector of the ATLAS Experiment will be upgraded to a full-silicon Inner Tracker (ITk) to cope with the extreme conditions of the High-Luminosity phase of the Large Hadron Collider, currently foreseen to start with Run 4 towards 2029. In order to address the challenge of pileup in the forward region of ITk, a High Granularity Timing Detector (HGTD) will provide time track...
