Michael Campbell is a senior engineer at CERN. He is spokesperson of the Medipix Collaborations which seek to disseminate pixel detector technology from High Energy Physics to many different fields. The work of the Collaborations has enabled new approaches in diverse domains ranging from dosimetry in space to radiation detection in classrooms and from industrial X-ray applications all the way through to spectroscopic medical X-ray imaging. The Collaborations have also pioneered the development of high granularity timing detectors used both at CERN experiments and in various quantum imaging applications.

Abstract:

We have developed large area ASIC's which can be processed with Through Silicon Vias and combined with an appropriate sensor to cover a large sensitive area seamlessly. The presentation will focus on the ASIC design and how we approached the challenge of creating a device which can be tiled on 4 sides. We will report on recent progress in constructing a large area device.
