I shall present on the fabrication and characterization of the first prototype 3D diamond detector for particle physics applications. A femto-second laser was used to create arrays of graphitic columns in single crystal and polycrystalline diamond samples, these conductive columns are a few microns in diameter and create a 3D readout similar to that produced in silicon. Creating a 3D...

One of the required features of tracking devices for the futures upgrades of LHC experiments will be a reduced thickness, in order to decrease the material budget and to achieve lower multiple scattering.
The main drawback related to a reduced sensor thickness is a decrease in the total sensing volume, which translates in a large reduction of the signal available for particle detection. To...

By 2020 a two stage upgrade of the accelerator complex, the High Luminosity-LHC (HL-LHC), will increase the instantaneous luminosities up to a factor of ten compared to the current design. The particle fluxes at CMS experiment will increment substantially with special impact on the inner tracking detector which will be subjected to large occupancies and radiation damage. In order to cope with...
