  10. 37. Radiation hard beam monitors based on ultra-thin silicon carbide diodes
    13/07/2026, 17:05

    The advances in FLASH radiotherapy, which has typical dose rates over 40 Gy/s, demand the development of innovative instrumentation capable of operating under that extreme radiation conditions. Beam monitoring in such environments require detectors that can sustain high particle fluxes while maintaining stability and precision. Moreover, these detectors have to be ultra-thin in order to...

  11. 39. Gamma-Ray Charge-Sharing Correction in High-Resolution CdTe Detectors via Cluster Circularity Analysis
    13/07/2026, 17:20

    Fine-pitch semiconductor detectors, including CdTe and CZT arrays, are establishing themselves as the leading technology for high-resolution medical imaging. However, reducing pixel pitches below 200 µm worsens charge-sharing effects, where incoming photon energy distributes across multiple adjacent pixels. This spatial dispersion, more pronounced in sub-200um pixels and gamma-ray energy...

    This poster presents the design of a multi-band, low-noise transimpedance amplifier for balanced homodyne detection in optical squeezing experiments. To facilitate comprehensive real-time system diagnostics, the architecture provides simultaneous readout across four distinct spectral channels: a DC path for local oscillator power monitoring, a high-gain “audio-band” (100 Hz – 100 kHz) sum and...

  20. 43. Overcoming Limitations of Hybrid Pixel Detectors for Clinical X-Ray Imaging
    14/07/2026, 16:50

    Introduction
    Hybrid-pixel detectors (HPDs) and in particular the subclass of photon-counting detectors (PCDs) have recently enabled substantial advances in clinical CT through improved dose efficiency, electronic noise suppression, and spectral imaging capabilities. However, these advantages have not yet translated to planar X-ray imaging, despite its seemingly simpler acquisition...

  21. 44. How to operate a compensated LGAD
    Simone Galletto (Università di Torino)
    14/07/2026, 17:05

    We present a parametric analysis and TCAD simulations of the radiation tolerance of compensated LGADs.
    In such designs, the gain layer is engineered through compensation of acceptor and donor dopants.
    As radiation progressively deactivates these dopants, the objective is to maintain the charge multiplication mechanism beyond the radiation tolerance of conventional LGAD technology, currently...

  38. 45. Thermally Induced Surface Void Formation at the Germanium/ITO Interface
    Dr Salvatore Antonino Lombardo (CNR-IMM), Dr Stefania Maria Serena Privitera (CNR-IMM)
    16/07/2026, 16:50

    Thermal processing of germanium-based architectures is essential for optoelectronic devices, yet surface and interfacial instabilities remain poorly understood [1-2]. A major drawback of these thermal processes is the formation of microscopic surface defects, specifically crystallographic pits or voids on Ge (100) surfaces. These irregularities, which vary based on annealing duration and...

  39. 48. Timepix4 measurements in scattered beams from electron FLASH radiotherapy
    16/07/2026, 17:00

    This work presents the first tests performed with the Timepix4 detector in scattered electron beams used for FLASH radiotherapy. Unlike conventional radiotherapy, FLASH delivers radiation at ultra-high dose rates, where the temporal structure of the beam plays a key role in the radiobiological response. Since standard dosimetry devices face important limitations under these conditions,...
