The Tangerine project focuses on the development of advanced sensor prototypes for silicon vertex detectors to be used in future lepton collider experiments. These detectors face stringent requirements, including excellent position resolution below 3um, minimal material budget with thicknesses below 50um, low power consumption of lower than 50mW/cm2, and time resolution on the nanosecond...
The Belle II experiment currently records data at the SuperKEKB e+e- collider, which holds the world luminosity record of 4.7x10^34 cm-2 s-1 and plans to push up to 6x10^35 cm-2 s-1. In such luminosity range for e+e- collisions, the inner detection layers should both cope with a hit rate dominated by beam-induced parasitic particles and provide minute tracking precision. A research and...
The ALICE Collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will replace the three innermost layers of the Inner Tracking System (ITS) during the Long Shutdown 3 in 2026-2029. The new inner tracker, called ITS3, will consist of truly-cylindrical silicon barrels to improve the pointing resolution by a factor of two over a large momentum range and the tracking efficiency at very low transverse...
Monolithic CMOS silicon sensors represent an important innovation for high-energy physics experiments due to their cheaper production and assembly cost compared to hybrid ones. Indeed, in hybrid devices, the electronics and the sensor are produced on different silicon substrates, which must be later connected using bonding techniques. However, as far as the time resolution is concerned, the...
MIMOSIS is a CMOS Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor designed for the Micro Vertex Detector of the CBM experiment, currently under development at the FAIR facility in Darmstadt, Germany. The reticle size sensor is developed by a joint R&D program of IPHC Strasbourg, GSI and the Goethe University Frankfurt. It hosts a matrix of 1024 x 504 pixels with a 27 x 30 $\mu m^{2}$ pitch and has to combine a...
The MALTA monolithic active pixel detector has been developed to meet the stringent demands of future high-energy physics experiments. To assess its capabilities, we performed fast-timing studies to define a figure of merit for this family of detectors. Conventional laser techniques are hindered by reflections from the sensor's metal layers, which restrict material penetration. We developed a...
