Description
The Physics demands in Fundamental research fields as Astrophysics/Astronomy and Particle Physics led to fantastic advances in a number of high technology domains. One of the most striking ones is the developments of semi-conductors. The progress in the Silicon based devices is one clear example. This session will present several facets of these advances and pushing always the limits.
The chair of this session, Professor Marcelo Zuffo, is Professor in the Department of Electronics Systems Engineering from the Polytechnic School of the University of São Paulo and the Director of Inova-USP. Besides, he is a researcher at the Laboratory of Integrated Systems (LSI), coordinating research and development in the field of Interactive Electronic Media. Since 2011, he has been the Coordinator of the Interdisciplinary Center for Interactive Technologies at USP. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)
Abstract: In the past few years, two design innovations have radically changed the performance of silicon detectors and turned silicon sensors into high-resolution timing detectors, fit to meet the very demanding requirement of future 4D trackers. In this presentation,I will review the performance improvements that these two design innovations, low-gain (LGAD) and resistive read-out (RSD) [1],...
Abstract: Timing detectors are an indispensable tool in collider experiments. The advent of new precision timing detectors will enhance resolution to a few tens of picoseconds. Beyond aiding precise physics measurements and new physics searches, these detectors will play a pivotal role in addressing the reconstruction challenges posed by future high-luminosity detectors. In this lecture, we...
Abstract: Moore’s Law predicted the sustained scaling that our industry has enjoyed for decades. End consumers have come to expect ever-increasing functionality at lower cost with each passing year. However, in the coming decade the limits of physics will forcibly slow the pace of geometric scaling, perhaps all but ending it. In the face of this issue, the industry is looking for new ways to...
