Description
Trench-isolated (TI) LGADs, developed at FBK, are pixelated LGAD implementations where pads are separated by physical trenches etched within the silicon substrate and filled with a dielectric. Developed as an alternative approach to implant-based inter-pad separation (JTEs), this technology promises a dramatic reduction to dead regions, mitigating fill factor issues inherent to small-pitch pixelated LGAD matrices. Through a dedicated 120 GeV SPS pion test beam campaign, the time resolution, efficiency and inter-pad distance of Carbon Infused irradiated TI-LGADs is presented in MIP conditions. Fluences up to 2.5 $\times$ 10$^{15}$ n$_{eq}$/cm$^{2}$ are evaluated, for single trench implementations with varied trench width. The combined timing and tracking readout used in this study, integrating ROI triggering, sub-μm multi-object alignment, multi-channel waveform digitization and achieving a 5-7 μm spatial resolution through a MIMOSA26 telescope, is also reviewed. Preliminary results are discussed for temperatures of -25$^{o}$C.
