Detektorentwicklung für die Teilchenphysik

Abstract In high-energy physics experiments, tracking and vertexing is nowadays mostly done using semiconductor detectors. Among the employed detectors are hybrid pixel sensors, passive sensors and recently also depleted monolithic active pixel sensors (DMAPS), which integrate the particle sensor with front-end electronics. Currently, the dominant material for the production of such sensors is silicon. However, the use of silicon carbide is currently being investigated. In this work we report on our progress on the development of silicon-based DMAPS. Further, we present two approaches for reading out passive silicon carbide detectors at particle rates from the kHz to the GHz range.
