Description
The Optimized CMOS Technology for Precision in Ultra-thin Silicon (Octopus) Project
aims to develop sensors for the vertex detector for future lepton colliders. As an
intermediate step, the project also focuses on developing high-resolution sensors for
beam telescopes at DESY and CERN, with less stringent power and timing
requirements, but focusing on achieving 3 µm position resolution.
As part of the Work Package 1: Simulation, research is being conducted to optimize
sensor layouts and dimensions and better understand sensor performance. Building on
extensive evaluations of n-blanket and n-gap layouts, further improvements in sensor
design in the scope of the deep n-implant shape and size are under investigation.
A summer student will contribute by developing and running TCAD and Allpix²
simulations, as well as analyzing the results. The student will gain hands-on
experience with TCAD static simulations and high-statistics Monte Carlo simulations,
both of which are essential for optimizing sensor designs and improving overall
performance.
Preferred skills include familiarity with Linux, Python, C++, and basic detector
physics.
