We have been developing various types of SSDs (Silicon Strip Detectors).
Hamamatsu SSDs has been used as tracking detector in many collider experiments [CELPHI, CDF, ZEUS, ATLAS, CMS, BELLE, etc.] and space experiments [ FGST(GLAST), AGILE, etc.].
For LHC, we have developed SSD which have high radiation tolerance and good quality of low bad channel rate. We delivered 15,500 SSDs to ATLAS...

In particle physics applications, the innermost pixel detectors will face in the future unprecedented requirements. Due to the increasing luminosity, the charge collection distance will be degraded to be less than physical segmentation of existing pixel devices resulting in poor particle tracking performance. Obvious approach to maintain sufficiently good spatial resolution is to increase the...

The PiXeL detector (PXL) of the STAR experiment at RHIC is the first application of the state-of-the-art thin Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) technology in a collider environment. The PXL, together with the Intermediate Silicon Tracker (IST) and the Silicon Strip Detector (SSD), form the Heavy Flavor Tracker (HFT), which has been designed to improve the vertex resolution and extend the...

The AEgIS experiment, at the CERN Antiproton Decelerator, aims at measuring the gravitational fall of antihydrogen using a cold, pulsed antihydrogen beam. In the last year a symbiotic antiproton beamline has been commissioned for performing detector tests with low energy antiproton beams. We will present here the latest results obtained on this beamline employing a Timepix3 hybrid module. The...

We report on the status and expectation of the development of Ultra-Fast Silicon Detectors (UFSD). UFSD are novel silicon sensors based on the Low-Gain Avalanche Diodes (LGAD) design and, due to internal gain, exhibit a signal which is a factor of ~ 10 larger than standard silicon detectors. The internal gain allows obtaining fast and large signals, a pre-requisite for time applications, and...

The objective of this work is the development of new position sensitive detectors with low signal amplification useful also for timing applications and called Low Gain Avalanche Detector (LGAD). These new devices are based on the standard Avalanche Photo Diodes (APD) normally used for optical and X-ray detection applications.
We will present the two dimensional numerical simulation based on...
