The Ring Imaging Cherenkov (RICH) detectors at LHCb play an integral role in particle identification. However, with the fivefold increase in luminosity resulting from LHCb upgrade II and the high luminosity LHC, the RICH detectors will have to introduce timing resolution on the order of 100 ps to retain performance. This time resolved upgrade is the focus of current RICH testbeam campaigns,...
Allpix Squared, a versatile, open-source simulation framework for silicon semiconductor pixel detectors, is now around for more than five years. Since the first release, the framework has developed a lot and the range of users has grown. While originally created for silicon detectors in high-energy physics, it is capable of simulating a wide range of detector types for various application...

The ATLAS Inner Detector (ID) will be replaced with a new all-silicon tracker (ITk) for LHCs high luminosity phase. ITk will consist of a pixel and a strip subdetector, both of which subdivide into barrel and endcap sections. The endcap strip modules use a radial strip geometry that resembles a polar coordinate system. Groups of these modules are then placed on a...
Monolithic CMOS sensors produced in a 65 nm imaging technology are being investigated for an application in particle physics for the first time. Their main characteristic is the integration of an active sensor and readout circuit in the same silicon wafer, which provides a reduction in material budget. Compared to the previously investigated 180 nm process, the 65 nm technology offers a...
The goal of the TANGERINE project is to develop the next generation of
monolithic silicon pixel detectors using a 65 nm CMOS imaging process, which offers a higher logic density and overall lower power consumption compared to previously used processes. In order to understand the processes that are involved in the development in the new 65 nm technology, a combination of Technology...
Monolithic CMOS sensors enable the development of detectors with low material budget and a low fabrication cost. Besides, using a small collection electrode results in a small sensor capacitance, a low analogue power consumption, and a large signal-to-noise ratio. TCAD Device simulations are used to model the highly non-linear electric field inside this type of sensor. These electric fields...
