CMOS Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) for future vertex detectors
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper reviews the development of CMOS Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) for future vertex detectors. MAPS are developed in a standard CMOS technology. In the imaging field, where the technology found its first applications, they are also known as CMOS Image Sensors. The use of MAPS as a detector for particle physics was first proposed at the end of 1999. Since then, their good performance in terms of spatial resolution, efficiency, radiation hardness have been demonstrated and work is now well under way to deliver the first MAPS-based vertex detectors.

Radiation Tolerance of CMOS Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors with Self-Biased Pixels
CMOS Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) are proposed as a technology for various vertex detectors in nuclear and particle physics. We discuss the mechanisms of ionizing radiation damage on MAPS hosting the the dead time free, so-called self bias pixel. Moreover, we discuss radiation hardened sensor designs which allow operating detectors after exposing them to irradiation doses above 1 Mrad.

Studies in the U.S., Europe, and Asia, have demonstrated the power of a pixel vertex detector in experiments at a future high energy linear collider. Silicon CCDs (Charged Coupled Devices) [1] seemed like the vertex detector sensors of choice for the International Linear Collider (ILC) until the accelerator technology decision. With the choice of a cold TESLAlike superconducting technology for ...
متن کاملA Pixel-level Sampling CMOS Vertex Detector for the ILC Status Report and Project Initiatives
Precision vertex reconstruction at the ILC requires a detector capable of exquisite spatial resolution while withstanding significant low momentum charged particle fluxes and modest radiation damage. Lessons can be learned from the development of an ultra-thin CMOS pixel detector device for the high-occupancy environment of a Super B-Factory. The Continuous Acquisition Pixel (CAP) detector is b...
متن کاملMonolithic Active Pixel Sensors for High Resolution Vertex Detectors
A novel Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor (MAPS) for charged particle tracking is presented. The partially depleted thin epitaxial layer of a low-resistivity silicon wafer is used as a sensitive detector volume from which the charge liberated by ionising particles is collected by diffusion. The sensor is a photodiode within a special structure allowing the high detection efficiency required for tr...
