A new silicon based vertex detector called the Heavy Flavor Tracker (HFT) was installed at the STAR experiment for the RHIC 2014 heavy ion run to improve the vertex resolution and extend the measurement capabilities of STAR in the heavy flavor domain. The HFT consists of 4 concentric cylinders around the STAR interaction point composed of three different silicon detector technologies based on...

The Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor (MAPS) technology offers the possibility to build pixel detectors with very high spatial resolution and low material budget; at the same time they can be produced in commercial CMOS processes. They are therefore very interesting for the innermost tracking layers of particle physics experiments. Significant progress has been made in the field of MAPS in the...

The DEPFET Collaboration develops highly granular, ultra-thin active pixel detectors for high-performance vertex reconstruction at future collider experiments. A fully engineered vertex detector design, including all the necessary supports and services and a novel ladder design with excellent thermo-mechanical properties, is being developed for the Belle II experiment. The self-supporting...

A pixel detector built with the DEPFET technology will be used for the two innermost layers of the Belle~II experiment at the $e^+e^-$ SuperKEKB collider at KEK. The physics goals of the experiment impose challenging requirements to the design of the pixel detector in terms of performance, material budget and power consumption. The DEPFET technology has proven to be a suitable solution for the...

SuperKEKB, the massive upgrade of the asymmetric electron positron collider KEKB in Tsukuba, Japan, aims at an integrated luminosity in excess of 50 ab$^{-1}$. It will deliver an instantaneous luminosity of $8⋅10^{35}$ cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$, which is 40 times higher than the world record set by KEKB.
At this high luminosity, a large increase of the background relative to the previous KEKB...

The precision physics needs at TeV-scale linear e+e- colliders (ILC and CLIC) require a vertex-detector system with excellent flavour tagging capabilities through a measurement of displaced vertices. This is essential for example for an explicit measurement of the Higgs decays to pairs of b-quarks, c-quarks and gluons. Efficient identification of top quarks in the decay t—>Wb will give access...

We are developing monolithic pixel detectors based on 0.2 um fully-depleted Silicon-on-Insulator technology fabricated Lapis Semiconductor Co Ltd. for high energy physics experiments, X-ray applications and so on.
To employ SOI devices on such radiation environments, we have to solve effects of total ionization damage for the transistors which are enclosed in the oxide layers.
The holes...
