Abstract

A monolithic pixel detector with 0.2μm silicon-on-insulator (SOI) CMOS technology has been developed. It has both a thick high-resistivity sensor layer and thin LSI circuit layer on a single chip. Integration-type and counting-type pixel detectors are fabricated and tested with light and X-rays. The process is open to many researchers through Multi Project Wafer (MPW) runs operated by KEK. Further improvements of the fabrication technologies are also under investigation by using a buried p-well and 3D integration technologies.
