Microelectronics used for Semiconductor Imaging Detectors

  • 1. CERN PH Department, CH1211 Geneva23 (Switzerland)

Description

Semiconductor crystal technology, microelectronics developments and nuclear particle detection have been in a relation of symbiosis, all the way from the beginning. The increase of complexity in electronics chips can now be applied to obtain much more information on the incident nuclear radiation. Some basic technologies are described, in order to acquire insight in possibilities and limitations for the most recent detectors.
