Sensor operating point calibration and monitoring of the ALICE Inner Tracking System during LHC Run 3
D. Agguiaro, G. Aglieri Rinella, L. Aglietta +282
The new Inner Tracking System (ITS2) of the ALICE experiment began operation in 2021 with the start of LHC Run 3. Compared to its predecessor, ITS2 offers substantial improvements…
A Novel Approach for Fault Detection and Failure Analysis of CMOS Copper Metal Stacks
Gregor Hieronymus Eberwein, Gianluca Aglieri Rinella, Daniela Bortoletto +16
For the Inner Tracking System 3 (ITS3) upgrade, the ALICE experiment at CERN requires monolithic active pixel sensors of dimensions up to 97~mm266~mm, occupying a large…
Influence of Radiation and AC Coupling on Time Performance of Analog Pixels Test Structures in 65 nm CMOS technology
Gianluca Aglieri Rinella, Luca Aglietta, Matias Antonelli +44
Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) in advanced CMOS imaging technologies are key to next-generation tracking systems for high-energy physics, where radiation hardness and preci…
Characterisation of the first wafer-scale prototype for the ALICE ITS3 upgrade: the monolithic stitched sensor (MOSS)
Omar Abdelrahman, Gianluca Aglieri Rinella, Luca Aglietta +136
This paper presents the characterisation and testing of the first wafer-scale monolithic stitched sensor (MOSS) prototype developed for the ALICE ITS3 upgrade that is to be install…
Further Characterisation of Digital Pixel Test Structures Implemented in a 65 nm CMOS Process
Gianluca Aglieri Rinella, Nicole Apadula, Anton Andronic +55
The next generation of MAPS for future tracking detectors will have to meet stringent requirements placed on them. One such detector is the ALICE ITS3 that aims to be very light at…
Detection efficiency and spatial resolution of Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors bent to different radii
Anton Andronic, Pascal Becht, Mihail Bogdan Blidaru +37
Bent monolithic active pixel sensors are the basis for the planned fully cylindrical ultra low material budget tracking detector ITS3 of the ALICE experiment. This paper presents r…
