This informative monograph describes the technological evolution of
silicon detectors and their impact on high energy particle physics.
The author here marshals his own first-hand experience in the
development and also the realization of the DELPHI, CDF II and the CMS
tracking detector. The basic principles of small strip- and
pixel-detectors are presented and also the final large-scale
applications. The Evolution of Silicon Detector Technology acquaints
readers with the manifold challenges involving the design of sensors
and pushing this technology to the limits. The expert will find
critical information that is so far only available in various slide
presentation scattered over the world wide web. This practical
introduction of silicon sensor technology and its day to day life in
the lab also offers many examples to illustrate problems and their
solutions over several detector generations. The new edition gives a
detailed overview of the silicon sensor technology used at the LHC,
from basic principles to actual implementation to lessons learned.
