As the final touches are being put to the LHC detectors, the race is on to per-
fect technologies which could be used to confront the challenges of the ultra
high luminosities at the SLHC and ILC. The achievements of the current de-
tectors must be extended, with ever more hostile radiation environments, ever
shorter signal shaping times and ever increasing emphasis on the highest...

The Compact Muon Solenoid Experiment (CMS) will start taking data at the
Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2007 with the largest silicon tracking
detector ever built. As a key component of this tracker, the collaboration is
building a silicon pixel detector consisting of two forward/backward disks on
each side of the interaction region and three barrel layers. The pixel detector
will be...

The Silicon Pixel Detector (SPD) forms the two innermost layers of the
ALICE Inner Tracking System (ITS). The SPD consists of 120 detector
modules (halfstaves) on two barrel layers at average radii of 3.9 cm and 7.6
cm, respectively. Each half-stave contains two ladders, each ladder
consisting of a 200 μm thick p +n silicon sensor matrix flip-chip bonded to
five 150 μm thick...

The ATLAS Pixel Detector is an 80 M channels silicon tracking system
designed to detect charged tracks and secondary vertices with very high
precision. To verify that the integrated assembly will perform as expected
subsequent to installation into the experimental area, a fraction (10%) of
the detector and the requisite ancillary services has been assembled and
operated in a...

The LHCb Silicon Tracker covers a sensitive surface of about 14 m 2 with
silicon micro-strip detectors. It uses up to 132 cm long detector modules
with readout strips of up to 38 cm in length and up to 57 cm long Kapton
interconnects in between sensors and readout chips. This results in large
load capacitances for the front-end amplifiers and an extensive R&D
programme was carried...

With a total area of more than 200 square meters and about 15,000 silicon
modules, the Tracker of the CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider
will be the largest silicon strip detector ever built. Together with a Pixel
detection system the CMS Silicon Strip Tracker will determine the charged
particle momenta and will play a determinant role in lepton reconstruction
and heavy...
