Monolithic devices
- Eva Vilella Figueras (University of Liverpool (GB))
Depleted monolithic active pixel sensors (''DMAPS'') use multi-well commercial CMOS processes to integrate sensor, front-end and read-out electronics in a single piece of silicon. These devices aim to meet the hit-rate and radiation-hardness requirements of tracker systems in particle collider experiments. In order to do so, they require a careful implementation of a fast readout and the use...
LF-Monopix2 is the latest prototype in a decade-long R&D effort to develop a large DMAPS device in a $\mathrm{150\,nm}$ CMOS process. All pixels in this chip contain both digital and analog electronics within their collection node and they are read-out through a fast column-based synchronous architecture. The design follows the so-called ''large electrode'' approach, where a careful layout of...
TJ-Monopix is series of monolithic pixel detectors with column-drain readout architecture and small collection electrode facilitating low-power designs aiming for high-energy collider experiments.
The latest iteration TJ-Monopix2 is designed in a 180 nm TowerJazz CMOS process and features a pixel size of 33 um x 33 um. Results from laboratory measurements and test beam campaigns...
Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) provide excellent criteria in
terms of pixel size and material budget and have become one of the
most promising candidates for future tracking detectors. Beyond these
aspects, timing is becoming an increasingly important aspect for tracking
detectors, whether it is to reduce event complexity or provide particle
identification via Time of Flight.

This contribution reviews the testbeam results of the RD50-MPW3 chip presented at the last workshop. Detailed analysis results are presented and discussed.
The measured efficiency is far beyond expectations, thus; an extensive analog chip-simulation study has been carried out to find the reason. These simulations as well as their outcome are discussed.
In the end, changes in the design for...
