AstroPix is a high-voltage CMOS monolithic silicon detector that was designed for space-based applications, specifically gamma-ray trackers. It targets low power operation in a relatively low occupancy environment with minimal dead material. These traits are synergistic with an imaging calorimeter as well and AstroPix will be the silicon technology in the Electron Ion Collier barrel...
SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory has led developed MAPS in several technologies, both for high-energy physics applications and foras well as ultra-fast photon science. SLAC is now leading a collaborative effort to develop MAPS for future colliders, with a strong synergy with the CERN DRD 7.6 project. SLAC has participated withengaged with international efforts led by CERN and ALICE in the...
The detectors at future e+e- linear colliders will need unprecedented precision on Higgs physics measurements. These ambitious physics goals translate into very challenging detector requirements on tracking and calorimetry. Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor (MAPS) technology offers small dead area, thin sensors, and small pixels over large areas,
Future e+e- Colliders require fast detectors...
We will present a program to establish the first development and manufacturing of HEP-specific sensors monolithically integrated into a standard CMOS process using a US-based foundry. In collaboration with several US universities the project aims to develop Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) designs implemented in the 90 nm technology node, including simple test structures and multi-pixel...
We will present the proposed research project to develop 3D-integrated sensors using advanced manufacturing capability for novel sensors, heterogeneously integrated with energy efficient readout circuits. The lack of precision timing in particle tracking detectors and the absence of low power, high throughput communications solutions to read them out limits progress in multiple fields of...
Low gain avalanche detectors (LGADs) promise excellent timing resolution, which can mitigate mis-assignment of vertices associated with pileup at the High Luminosity LHC and other future hadron colliders. The most highly irradiated LGADs will be subject to $2.5\times 10^{15}\;n_{eq}cm^{-2}$ of hadronic fluence during HL-LHC operation; their timing performance must tolerate this. Hamamatsu...
We present the results with large-area AC-LGAD strip sensors, using the Fermilab Test Beam Facility and sensors manufactured by the Brookhaven National Laboratory. Sensors of this type are envisioned for applications that require large-area precision 4D tracking coverage with economical channel counts, including timing layers for the Electron Ion Collider (EIC), and space-based particle...
Low Gain Avalanche Detectors (LGADs) are characterized by an extremely good time resolution (down to 17ps), a fast rise time (~500ps) and a very high repetition rate (~1ns full charge collection). For the application of this technology to near future experiments such as e+e- Higgs factories, EPIC, or smaller experiments (e.g., the PIONEER experiment), the first issue to be addressed is the...
PIONEER is a next-generation experiment to measure the charged-pion branching ratio to electrons vs. muons and the pion beta decay with an order of magnitude improvement in precision. A high-granularity active target (ATAR) is being designed to provide detailed 4D tracking information, allowing the separation of the energy deposits of the pion decay products in both position and time. The...
An InAs/GaAs quantum dot (QD) detector is a novel GaAs semiconductor-based scintillation detector utilizing artificial luminescent centers - epitaxial InAs QDs, combined with a monolithically integrated photodiode (PD) to collect the QD emission. To assess its feasibility for future tracking applications, we compare the parameters of this detector against a perspective Si Low Gain Avalanche...
The Inner Detector of the ATLAS Experiment will be upgraded to a full-silicon Inner Tracker (ITk) to cope with the extreme conditions of the High-Luminosity phase of the Large Hadron Collider, currently foreseen to start with Run 4 towards 2029. In order to address the challenge of pileup in the forward region of ITk, a High Granularity Timing Detector (HGTD) will provide time track...
High-energy and high-luminosity collision experiments on the future collider demand higher radiation resistance and time resolution detectors due to events pile-up. Silicon Low-gain avalanche detectors (LGADs) with excellent time resolution have been identified for use in collider experiments, such as ATLAS and CMS experiments. However, due to the inherent properties of silicon material, the...
