Signal reduction is the most important radiation damage effect on performance of silicon tracking detectors in ATLAS. Adjusting sensor bias voltage and detection threshold can help in mitigating the effects but it
is important to have simulated data that reproduce the evolution of performance with the accumulation of luminosity, hence fluence.

The optimisation of the charge collection behaviour in the sensitive region of CMOS sensors with nonlinear electric fields requires precise simulations, and this can be achieved by a combination of finite-element electrostatic field simulations and Monte Carlo methods. Monolithic active pixel sensors (MAPS) produced using commercial CMOS imaging processes are attractive in a particle physics...
The goal of the TANGERINE project is to develop the next generation of
monolithic silicon pixel detectors using a 65 nm CMOS imaging process, which
offers a higher logic density and overall lower power consumption compared to
previously used processes. A combination of Technology Computer-Aided De-
sign (TCAD) and Monte Carlo (MC) simulations are used to understand the
physical processes...
Silicon Carbide (SiC) is a wide-bandgap semiconductor that has recently become a topic of intensified interest in the HEP instrumentation community due to the availability of high-quality wafers from the power electronics industry. SiC features multiple advantageous material properties over silicon. It is insensitive to visible light, hypothesized to be more radiation hard, and has much lower...
The Inner Tracker (IT) of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN will be upgraded for the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC). In the ultimate running scenario, the expected integrated luminosity at the end of the HL-LHC running phase is 4000 fb$^{-1}$, corresponding to a 1 MeV neutron equivalent fluence of $3.5 \times 10^{16}$ cm$^{-2}$ and a total ionizing...
The High Luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, the HL-LHC, is expected to provide up to 200 proton-proton interaction per bunch crossing delivering about 4000 fb$^{-1}$ of data over 10 years.
To operate in such a harsh particle environment the present inner detector of ATLAS experiment will be replaced by a completely new Inner Tracker (ITk). The pixel detector, which is...
