“LF-Monopix2” and “TJ-Monopix2” are the second generation of “Monopix” Depleted Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor prototypes fabricated in 150 nm and 180 nm CMOS processes, respectively. Both devices implement a fully functional column-drain read-out architecture at a reticle-size scale, but differ on the concept used for pixel design. [...]

Future developments of radiation tolerant sensors based on the MALTA architecture
/ Dobrijević, D (CERN ; Zagreb U.) ; Allport, P (Birmingham U.) ; Asensi, I (CERN) ; Berlea, D (DESY, Zeuthen) ; Bortoletto, D (Oxford U.) ; Buttar, C (Glasgow U.) ; Dachs, F (CERN) ; Dao, V (CERN) ; Denizli, H (Abant Izzet Baysal U.) ; Sanz de Acedo, L F (CERN) et al.
The planned MALTA3 DMAPS designed in the standard TowerJazz 180 nm imaging process will implement the numerous process modifications, as well as front-end changes in order to boost the charge collection efficiency after the targeted fluence of 1 × 10$^{15}$ 1 MeV n$_{eq}$/cm$^{2}$. The effectiveness of these changes have been demonstrated with recent measurements of the full size MALTA2 chip. [...]

/ Rinella, Gianluca Aglieri (CERN) ; Aglietta, Luca (INFN, Turin ; Turin U.) ; Antonelli, Matias (INFN, Trieste) ; Barile, Francesco (INFN, Bari ; Bari U.) ; Benotto, Franco (INFN, Turin) ; Beolè, Stefania Maria (INFN, Turin ; Turin U.) ; Botta, Elena (INFN, Turin ; Turin U.) ; Bruno, Giuseppe Eugenio (Bari Polytechnic ; INFN, Bari) ; Carnesecchi, Francesca (CERN) ; Colella, Domenico (INFN, Bari ; Bari U.) et al.
In the context of the CERN EP R&D; on monolithic sensors and the ALICE ITS3 upgrade, the Tower Partners Semiconductor Co (TPSCo) 65 nm process has been qualified for use in high energy physics, and adopted for the ALICE ITS3 upgrade. An Analog Pixel Test Structure (APTS) featuring fast per pixel operational-amplifier-based buffering for a small matrix of four by four pixels, with a sensor with a small collection electrode and a very non-uniform electric field, was designed to allow detailed characterization of the pixel performance in this technology.

Prototype measurement results in a 65 nm technology and TCAD simulations towards more radiation tolerant monolithic pixel sensors
/ Lemoine, C (CERN ; Strasbourg, IPHC) ; Aglieri Rinella, G (CERN) ; Baudot, J (Strasbourg, IPHC) ; Borghello, G (CERN) ; Carnesecchi, F (CERN) ; Hillemanns, H (CERN) ; Kluge, A (CERN) ; Kucharska, G (CERN) ; Leitao, P V (CERN) ; Mager, M (CERN) et al.
Early measurements on monolithic pixel sensor prototypes in the TPSCo 65 nm technology indicate a different response and radiation tolerance (up to5×10$^{15}$ 1 MeV n$_{eq}$ cm) for different sensor layout and process variants, illustrating the importance of layout and process in the path towards increased sensor radiation tolerance. Using these measurement results, TCAD simulations provide more insight to link the macroscopic behaviour of specific sensor variants to the details of its structure. [...]

The MALTA silicon pixel detector combines a depleted monolithic active pixel sensor (DMAPS) with a fully asynchronous front-end and readout. It features a high granularity pixel matrix with a 36.4 μm symmetric pixel pitch, low power consumption of <1 μW/pixel and low material budget with detector thicknesses as little as 50 μm. [...]

Radiation Hardness of MALTA2, a Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor for Tracking Applications
/ Berlea, D V (DESY, Zeuthen ; Humboldt U., Berlin (main)) ; Allport, P (Birmingham U.) ; Tortajada, I Asensi (CERN) ; Bortoletto, D (Oxford U.) ; Buttar, C (Glasgow U.) ; Charbon, E (Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne) ; Dachs, F (CERN) ; Dao, V (CERN) ; Denizili, H (Abant Izzet Baysal U.) ; Dobrijevic, D (CERN) et al.
MALTA is a depleted monolithic active pixel sensor (DMAPS) developed in the Tower Semiconductor 180-nm CMOS imaging process. Monolithic CMOS sensors offer advantages over current hybrid imaging sensors in terms of both increased tracking performance due to lower material budget and ease of integration and construction costs due to the integration of read-out and active sensor into one ASIC.
