B11-New developments and detector R&D
- Cinzia Da Via (University of Manchester (GB))
The ATLAS IBL project led to an impressive progress in 3D radiation sensors, with experimental confirmation of their remarkable radiation tolerance with relatively low power dissipation, and the demonstration of medium volume productions with an acceptable yield. These accomplishments paved the way for using 3D sensors in other pixel detector systems in Phase 1 upgrades at the LHC (e.g., AFP...
Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) is very fascinating technology which can be used to fabricate monolithic radiation detectors. Although there were several difficult issues to solve such as back-gate effect, sensor-circuit coupling, and radiation hardness etc., we could solve these issues by introducing buried wells, double-SOI wafer and higher dose LDD region.
We also introduced active merge...
With the advent of thinner and more precise silicon detectors for vertexing and tracking in collider experiments, the design of sufficiently thin and stable supports and services is increasingly challenging. In this contribution an overview is given of the adoption of micro-channel cooling in high energy physics. The emphasis is on a recently proposed approach to integrate the cooling channels...
