Job Description

Dense tracking environments in experiments at CERN's High-Luminosity LHC and future FCC experiments require increased use of timing information in addition to the position measurements provided by pixel detectors. This adds an extra dimension to the available information and is essential for mitigating pile-up effects at high luminosities. The CASSIA Project (CMOS Active SenSor with Internal Amplification) aims to develop monolithic active pixel sensors (MAPS) with internal signal gain and low noise in a widely used CMOS imaging process, targeting a broad range of applications.

Your responsibilities

  • Assemble and test CASSIA sensor prototypes on PCBs.
  • Support and improve signal measurements in laboratory measurements, irradiations and test beams.
  • Analyse CASSIA2 for optimal signal collection and time resolution.
  • Investigate radiation hardness and the change of gain as a function of irradiation.
  • Test CASSIA2 on chip am...
