In this contribution, we are going to present the last developments on Inverse Low Gain Avalanche Detectors (iLGADs) at IMB-CNM. This iLGAD sensor concept is one of the most promising technologies for enabling the future 4D tracking paradigm that requires both precise position and timing resolution. In the iLGAD concept, based on the LGAD technology, the readout is done at the ohmic contacts,...
Picosecond timing measurements have become to one of the hottest topic in the detector development. We are considering to utilize the latest timing measurement technologies to combine with our ILD concept, including application of LGADs to silicon-tungsten ECAL and 100ps-level timing measurements at scintillator calorimeters. The updated detector can be called as "5D particle imaging device"...
An alternative pixel-detector hybridization technology based on Anisotropic Conductive Films (ACF) is under development to replace the conventional fine-pitch flip-chip bump bonding. The new process takes advantage of the recent progress in industrial applications of ACF and is suitable for time- and cost-effective in-house processing of single devices. This new bonding technique developed can...
One of the most interesting yet-to-be answered questions in Particle Physics is the nature of the Higgs Yukawa couplings and their universality. Key information in our understanding of this question arises from studying the coupling of the Higgs boson to second generation quarks. Some puzzles in the flavor sector and potential additional sources of CP violation could also have their origins in...
The LHCb vertex detector, VELO, is being upgraded for the LHC Run3. The new hybrid pixel vertex detector will be capable of 40 MHz readout and will be installed in the secondary vacuum of the LHC at a closest proximity of 5.1 mm to the beams during stable collisions. The pixel detector requires a highly thermally efficient and lightweight cooling system. For this purpose a silicon plate...
