In the LHC long shutdown 3, the ALICE experiment upgrades the inner layers of its Inner Tracker System with three layers of wafer-scale stitched sensors bent around the beam pipe. Two stitched sensor evaluation structures, the MOnolithic…
ALICE, one of the four main CERN LHC experiments, studies heavy-ion collisions at ultra-relativistic energies. For LHC Run 4 (starting 2030), ALICE will replace the three innermost cylindrical layers of its inner tracking system during Long…
This paper presents the characterisation and testing of the first wafer-scale monolithic stitched sensor (MOSS) prototype developed for the ALICE ITS3 upgrade that is to be installed during the LHC Long Shutdown 3 (2026-2030). The MOSS chip…
The ALICE Inner Tracking System upgrade (ITS3) will employ stitched, wafer-scale Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) for the first time in high-energy physics, achieving a material budget of only 0.09$\,$%$\,$X$\mathrm{_{0}}$ per layer.…
For the Inner Tracking System 3 (ITS3) upgrade, the ALICE experiment at CERN requires monolithic active pixel sensors of dimensions up to 97~mm$\,\times\,$266~mm, occupying a large fraction of a 300 mm wafer. To manufacture such a…
During LHC Long Shutdown 3, the ALICE experiment will replace the three innermost layers of its Inner Tracking System (ITS2) with a new vertex detector, the ITS3. This new detector will be assembled using wafer-scale, stitched Monolithic…
The ALICE Inner Tracking System upgrade (ITS3) will employ stitched, wafer-scale Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) for the first time in high-energy physics. MOSAIX, a fully functional prototype and the final development step before…
The high integration density of MAPS, with silicon sensor and readout electronics implemented in the same device, allows very thin structures with a greatly reduced material budget. Thicknesses of $\mathcal{O}$(50~$\mu$m), values at which…
Monolithic stitched CMOS sensors are explored for the upgrade of Inner Tracking System of the ALICE experiment (ITS3) and the R&D of the CERN Experimental Physics Department. To learn about stitching, two 26 cm long stitched sensors, the…
The Inner Tracking System (ITS) Upgrade for the ALICE experiment at LHC is the first large-area ($\sim$10~m$^2$) silicon vertex detector based on the CMOS Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor (MAPS) technology, which combines sensitive volume and…
The ALICE collaboration is preparing an upgrade of the three innermost layers of the current Inner Tracking System (ITS) during the next LHC long shutdown (LS3). The new ITS detector will use wafer-scale (up to \SI{27}{cm} in length)…
During the Long Shutdown 3 (LS3, scheduled 2026-2030), the innermost 3 layers (Inner Barrel, or IB) of the present ALICE ITS2 will be replaced with large-area, flexible, stitched CMOS 65 nm sensors, arranged in 2 half-barrels of 3…
The ALICE Inner Tracking System has been recently upgraded to a full silicon detector consisting entirely of MAPS, arranged in seven concentric layers around the LHC beam pipe. Further ahead, during the LHC Long Shutdown 3, the ALICE…
During the second LHC long shutdown (LS2) the Inner Tracking System (ITS) of ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) will be replaced by seven layers of CMOS Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS). The latest innovations in silicon imaging…
The Inner Tracking System (ITS) of the ALICE experiment at CERN will undergo an upgrade during the LHC long shutdown 3, in which the three innermost tracking layers will be replaced. This upgrade, named the Inner Tracking System 3 (ITS3),…
Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) combine the sensing part and the front-end electronics in the same silicon layer, making use of CMOS technology. Profiting from the progresses of this commercial process, MAPS have been undergoing…
The Inner Tracking System (ITS) of the ALICE experiment will be upgraded during the second long LHC shutdown in $\mathrm{2019}-\mathrm{2020}$. The main goal of the ALICE ITS Upgrade is to enable high precision measurements of low - momentum…
After the successful installation and first operation of the new Inner Tracking System (ITS2), which consists of about 10 m$^2$ of monolithic silicon pixel sensors, ALICE is pioneering the usage of bent, wafer-scale pixel sensors for the…
The next generation of MAPS for future tracking detectors will have to meet stringent requirements placed on them. One such detector is the ALICE ITS3 that aims to be very light at 0.07% X/X$_{0}$ per layer and have a low power consumption…
The new Inner Tracking System (ITS2) of the ALICE experiment began operation in 2021 with the start of LHC Run 3. Compared to its predecessor, ITS2 offers substantial improvements in pointing resolution, tracking efficiency at low…
