This talk offers a comprehensive overview of the advancements in
precision radiation detectors developed at the Semiconductor Laboratory
of the
Max Planck Society. The laboratory is at the forefront of pushing
scientific boundaries by providing sensors for cutting-edge research
projects. Its primary focus is the development of commercially
unavailable silicon sensors tailored for a variety of scientific
applications.
The sensor technology is specifically designed to meet the stringent requirements of semiconductor radiation detectors, enabling the production of wafer-sized, defect-free, double-sided detectors on ultrapure silicon. Three key device types developed at the laboratory (SDDs, pnCCDs, and DEPFETs) will be detailed, along with an introduction to the low-gain avalanche device, MARTHA.
Additionally, the talk will showcase examples of developed and planned detector systems for selected applications, including high-energy particle physics (BELLE II), astrophysics (eROSITA, BepiColombo, and ATHENA), material science (EDET and FSP TNG), and synchrotron beamline instrumentation (LCLS, XFEL). Future perspectives of these sensor concepts will also be discussed.
