Development of a multi-pixel photon sensor with single-photon sensitivity
A multi-pixel photon sensor with single-photon sensitivity has been
developed, based on a technology of a hybrid photo-detector (HPD) consisting of
a photocathode and a multi-pixel avalanche diode (MP-AD). The developed HPD has
a proximity focused structure, where a photocathode and an MP-AD are facing
each other with a small gap of 2.5 mm. The MP-AD, which has an effective area
of 16x16 mm2 composed of 8x8 pixels, has been specially designed for the HPD.
The gain of the HPD reaches 5x10^4, sufficiently high to detect single photons
with a timing resolution better than 100 ps. Number of photoelectrons up to
four can be clearly identified in a pulse-height spectrum as distinct peaks,
thanks to the low noise characteristics of the HPD. It is also demonstrated
that the HPD can be operated with good performance in a magnetic field as high
as 1.5 TComment: 39 pages, 22 figures, submitted to Nucl. Intr. and Meth.

New pixel detector concept DuTiP for Belle II upgrade and the ILC with an SOI technology
International audienceBelle II detector upgrade is being discussed aiming to collect five times larger integrated luminosity of 250 ab−1. The beam background level is expected five times higher than current design, thus a new pixel vertex detector with faster readout should be developed. We have invented a new pixel detector concept DuTiP for the Belle II upgrade which can be also used for the International Linear Collider (ILC) with small modifications. To realize the DuTiP concept, an SOI technology is chosen as a baseline with a pixel size of 35μm×35μm. The DuTiP concept and its application to a monolithic pixel detector in an SOI technology are explained
