We present the development of the DSSC: an ultra-high speed detector system for the European XFEL in Hamburg. The DSSC will be able to record X-ray images with a maximum frame rate of 4.5MHz. The system is based on a silicon pixel sensor with a new non-linear DEPFET as a central amplifier structure and has detection efficiency close to 100% for X-rays from 0.5 keV up to 10keV. The sensor will...

Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) have the potential to replace conventional photomultiplier tubes in many applications. Thus, the improvement and full understanding of SiPM properties is of general interest. Conventional SiPM concepts use deposition of a high ohmic polysilicon layer as quench resistor. This, in turn, acts as an obstacle for light and reduces the fill factor which gives...

3D silicon detectors were successfully fabricated in different facilities in Europe and USA in 2010-2011 by a collaboration of ~90 scientists and processing laboratories. Sensors with full compatibility with large pixel readout electronic chips have currenly an yield of ~60%. In 3D, electrodes are micromachined inside the silicon wafer bulk rather than being implanted on its surfaces. This...

Recent Results of CERN RD39 Collaboration on Development of Radiation Hard Si Detectors Operated at Low to Cryogenic Temperatures will be presented in this talk. It has been found, in comparisons of results of simulation and charge collection data of pad and strip detectors, the CID (charge-injected-diode) operation mode of Si detectors reduces the free carrier trapping, resulting in a much...

In recent developments we have studied CVD diamonds as beam monitors for a large variety of applications. We will present test results on diamond detectors used as beam loss monitors operating at ultra-cold temperatures (1.9K) for future use at LHC, as muon beam monitor in the CERN CNGS facility and as diamond pixel modules to monitor luminosity near the interaction point of the ATLAS...

The Gigatracker (GTK) is a hybrid silicon pixel detector designed for the NA62 experiment at CERN. The beam spectrometer, made of three GTK stations, has to sustain high and non-uniform particle rate (~1 GHz in total) and measure momentum and angles of each beam track with a combined time resolution of 150 ps. In order to reduce multiple scattering and hadronic interactions of beam particles,...

The development of integration type pixel detectors presents interest for physics communities because it brings optimization of design, simplicity of production - which means smaller cost, and reduction of detector material budget. During the last decade a lot of research and development activities took place in the field of CMOS Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) technology resulting in improvement...

The Belle experiment at the KEK-B electron/positron collider in Tsukuba (Japan) has been successfully operating for more than ten years. A major update of the machine to SuperKEKB is now foreseen until 2014, aiming a 40-fold peak luminosity compared to the previous system. This also requires a redesign of the Belle detector (leading to Belle II) and especially its Silicon Vertex Detector...

In the design of the Silicon Vertex Tracker for the high luminosity SuperB collider, very challenging requirements are set by physics and background conditions on its innermost Layer0: small radius (about 1.5 cm), resolution of 10-15 $\mu$m in both coordinates, low material budget <1% X$_0$, and the ability to withstand a background hit rate of several tens of MHz/cm$^2$.
Thanks to an...

We present an innovative monolithic pixel sensor developed in the framework of the LePIX project aimed at tracking/triggering tasks where high granularity, low power consumption, material budget, radiation hardness and production costs are a concern. The detector is built in a 90nm CMOS process on a substrate of moderate resistivity. This allows charge collection by drift from a depleted...
