چکیده
A monolithic pixel sensor in deep-submicron SiliconOn-Insulator (SOI) CMOS technology has been designed, manufactured and characterised. This technology is of significant interest for applications in particle tracking and imaging. The prototype chip features pixels of 10 μm pitch arrayed in two analog sections and one digital section with a comparator and a latch integrated in each pixel. The prototype response has been tested with infrared lasers and with the 1.35 GeV electron beam extracted from the injection booster at the LBNL Advanced Light Source. Results from irradiation tests with low energy protons and neutrons performed at the LBNL 88-inch Cyclotron are also presented.

Monolithic Pixel Sensors in Deep-Submicron SOI Technology with Analog and Digital Pixels
This paper presents the design and test results of a prototype monolithic pixel sensor manufactured in deep-submicron fullydepleted Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) CMOS technology. In the SOI technology, a thin layer of integrated electronics is insulated from a (high-resistivity) silicon substrate by a buried oxide. Vias etched through the oxide allow to contact the substrate from the electronics l...
متن کاملElectrical μ-Lens Synthesis Using Dual-Junction Single-Photon Avalanche Diode
This work presents a dual-junction, single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) with electrical μ-lens designed and simulated in 90 nm standard complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology. The evaluated structure can collect the photons impinging beneath the pixel guard ring, as well as the pixel active area. The fill factor of the SPAD increases from 12.5% to 42% in comparison with simi...
متن کاملA study on Ca II 854.2 nm emission in a sunspot umbra using a thin cloud model
In the present work, we introduce and explain a method of solution of the radiative transfer equation based on a thin cloud model. The efficiency of this method to retrieve dynamical chromospheric parameters from Stokes I profiles of Ca II 854.2 nm line showing spectral emission is investigated. The analyzed data were recorded with the Crisp Imaging Spectro-Polarimeter (CRISP) at Swedish 1-m So...
متن کاملA 1-V Cyclic A/D Converter Using FD-SOI Sample/Hold Circuits for Sensor Networks
A cyclic A/D conversion circuit technique for sensor networks has been developed using 0.2-μm CMOS/FD-SOI technology. The FD-SOI analog switches can lower the supply voltage without degrading accuracy because of their negligible body effect. The proposed A/D converter achieves operation at the supply voltage of 1 V or less and can handle a sampling frequency ranging from 8 Sps to 8 kSps with a ...
متن کاملUse of Yeast Culture in the TMR of Dairy Holstein Cows
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of yeast culture (Saccharomyces cerevisiae SC 47) addition in the diet of dairy cows on their rumen fermentation and milk production. Animals received a diet TMR based on good maize silage with a higher dry matter content (14 kg), 14 kg of lucerne-grass haylage, 5 kg of crushed ears of maize, 5 kg of beet pulp silage, 3 kg of crimped wheat, 2 kg...
