We designed, produced, and tested RSD (Resistive AC-Coupled Silicon Detectors) devices, an evolution of the standard LGAD (Low-Gain Avalanche Diode) technology where a resistive n-type implant and a coupling dielectric layer have been implemented. The first feature works as a resistive sheet, freezing the multiplied charges, while the second one acts as a capacitive coupling for readout pads. We succeeded in the challenging goal of obtaining very fine pitch (50, 100, and 200 um) while maintaining the signal waveforms suitable for high timing and 4D-tracking performances, as in the standard LGAD-based devices.

In this paper we present a complete characterization of the first batch of Resistive AC-Coupled Silicon Detectors, called RSD1, designed at INFN Torino and manufactured by Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK) in Trento. With their 100% fill-factor, RSD rep
resent the new enabling technology for high-precision 4D-tracking. Indeed, being based on the well-known charge multiplication mechanism of Low-Gain Avalanche Detectors (LGAD), they benefit from the very good timing performances of such technology together with an unprecedented resolution of the spatial tracking, which allows to reach the micron-level scale in the track reconstruction. This is essentially due to the absence of any segmentation structure between pads (100% fill-factor) and to other two innovative key-features: the first one is a properly doped n+ resistive layer, slowing down the charges just after being multiplied, and the second one is a dielectric layer grown on Silicon, inducing a capacitive coupling on the metal pads deposited on top of the detector. The very good spatial resolution (micron-level) we measured experimentally - higher than the nominal pad pitch - comes from the analogical nature of the readout of signals, whose amplitude attenuates from the pad center to its periphery, while the outstanding results in terms of timing (less than 14 ps, even better than standard LGAD) are due to a combination of very-fine pitch, analogical response and charge multiplication.
This paper presents the principles of operation of Resistive AC-Coupled Silicon Detectors (RSDs) and measurements of the temporal and spatial resolutions using a combined analysis of laser and beam test data. RSDs are a new type of n-in-p silicon sen
sor based on the Low-Gain Avalanche Diode (LGAD) technology, where the $n^+$ implant has been designed to be resistive, and the read-out is obtained via AC-coupling. The truly innovative feature of RSD is that the signal generated by an impinging particle is shared isotropically among multiple read-out pads without the need for floating electrodes or an external magnetic field. Careful tuning of the coupling oxide thickness and the $n^+$ doping profile is at the basis of the successful functioning of this device. Several RSD matrices with different pad width-pitch geometries have been extensively tested with a laser setup in the Laboratory for Innovative Silicon Sensors in Torino, while a smaller set of devices have been tested at the Fermilab Test Beam Facility with a 120 GeV/c proton beam. The measured spatial resolution ranges between $2.5; mu m$ for 70-100 pad-pitch geometry and $17; mu m$ with 200-500 matrices, a factor of 10 better than what is achievable in binary read-out ($bin; size/ sqrt{12}$). Beam test data show a temporal resolution of $sim 40; ps$ for 200-$mu m$ pitch devices, in line with the best performances of LGAD sensors at the same gain.
Cadmium Zinc Telluride and Cadmium Telluride are the detector materials of choice for the detection of X-rays in the X-ray energy band E >= 5keV with excellent spatial and spectral resolution and without cryogenic cooling. Owing to recent breakthroug
hs in grazing incidence mirror technology, next-generation hard X-ray telescopes will achieve angular resolution between 5 and 10 arc seconds - about an order of magnitude better than that of the NuSTAR hard X-ray telescope. As a consequence, the next generation of X-ray telescopes will require pixelated X-ray detectors with pixels on a grid with a lattice constant of <= 250um. Additional detector requirements include a low energy threshold of less than 5keV and an energy resolution of less than one keV. The science drivers for a high angular-resolution X-ray mission include studies and measurements of black hole spins, the cosmic evolution of super-massive black holes, active galactic nuclei feedback, and the behaviour of matter at very high densities. In this contribution, we report on our R&D studies with the goal to optimise small-pixel Cadmium Zinc Telluride and Cadmium Telluride detectors.
The results obtained in laboratory tests, using scintillator bars read by silicon photomultipliers are reported. The present approach is the first step for designing a precision tracking system to be placed inside a free magnetized volume for the cha
rge identification of low energy crossing particles. The devised system is demonstrated able to provide a spatial resolution better than 2 mm.
This is part of a document, which is devoted to the developments of pixel detectors in the context of the International Linear Collider. From the early developments of the MIMOSAs to the proposed DotPix I recall some of the major progresses. The need
for very precise vertex reconstruction is the reason for the Research and Development of new pixel detectors, first derived from the CMOS sensors and in further steps with new semiconductors structures. The problem of radiation effects was investigated and this is the case for the noise level with emphasis of the benefits of downscaling. Specific semiconductor processing and characterisation techniques are also described, with the perspective of a new pixel structure.
