Low Gain Avalanche Detector (LGAD) is the baseline sensing technology of the
recently proposed Minimum Ionizing Particle (MIP) end-cap timing detectors
(MTD) at the Atlas and CMS experiments. The current MTD sensor is designed as a
multi-pad matrix detector delivering a poor position resolution, due to the
relatively large pad area, around 1 mm2; and a good timing resolution,
around 20-30 ps. Besides, in his current technological incarnation, the timing
resolution of the MTD LGAD sensors is severely degraded once the MIP particle
hits the inter-pad region since the signal amplification is missing for this
region. This limitation is named as the LGAD fill-factor problem. To overcome
the fill factor problem and the poor position resolution of the MTD LGAD
sensors, a p-in-p LGAD (iLGAD) was introduced. Contrary to the conventional
LGAD, the iLGAD has a non-segmented deep p-well (the multiplication layer).
Therefore, iLGADs should ideally present a constant gain value over all the
sensitive region of the device without gain drops between the signal collecting
electrodes; in other words, iLGADs should have a 100% fill-factor by
design. In this paper, tracking and timing performance of the first iLGAD
prototypes is presented.Comment: Conference Proceedings of VCI2019, 15th Vienna Conference of
