In High-Energy physics applications, electronic devices will experience ever-increasing radiation doses. The forthcoming increase of the luminosity of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN will require electronics to be able to withstand ultrahigh total ionizing dose (TID) levels up to 1 Grad(SiO2). For this reason, research on the TID response of modern technologies at ultrahigh doses has...
Several next-generation experiments will use SiPMs cooled to very low temperatures. The DUNE experiment will use large arrays of SiPMs to detect scintillation light produced in liquid argon (90 K) by neutrino interactions. Each channel will require single photon sensitivity with a total photosensitive area of tens of cm$^2$, read out with a single amplifier. Due to the low source impedance,...
"The IXPE mission, featuring three x-ray telescopes with
polarization-sensitive Gas Pixel Detectors (GPD), aims to explore the
properties of cosmic x-ray sources in the 2 to 8 keV energy range. The
GPD and the readout electronics, developed at INFN, play a pivotal role
in capturing and processing the polarization data, which are central to
the mission's scientific objectives. We will...
The LITE-SLPD (Lightweight Integrated Technology for Luminescence and Particle Detection) project explores the integration of advanced detection electronics within compact and low-power systems. As part of this effort, the GEN4 system introduces a fully integrated ASIC-based analog front-end for SiPM-based particle detection.
The ASIC chip, a key element of the GEN4 system, integrates core...
