IMB-CNM Thesis Defense: 3D Sensors for the ATLAS HL-LHC Pixel Upgrade and Future Colliders
By Maria Manna.
Abstract: This thesis is devoted to the development, fabrication and characterisation of the 3D silicon detectors fabricated at the Centro Nacional de Microelectronica (IMB-CNM) in Barcelona. In the view of the High Luminosity-LHC upgrade of the ATLAS detector and the possible Future Circular Collider, a thorough investigation of the 3D pixel detectors, used as a tracking sensors, is necessary. The detector capabilities have to be evaluated and a new generation of devices that is able to full the stringent requirements of the more powerful colliders have to be developed.
