Timepix Pixel Sensors Tracking & Timestamping for ILC V Jornadas sobre la participación española en futuros aceleradores lineales Abraham Gallas
Outline • ILC environment and assumptions • Detector design rationale • ASIC (Timepix) • Sensor thinning • Low mass bump bonding • Test beams with Timepix • Next steps Abraham Gallas
ILC in a nutshell • e+ e- linear collider • Center of mass energy range 200-500 GeV • Peak luminosity 2 x 1034 cm-2 s-1 • Bunch timing: • 5 pulses per second (5 Hz) • 1260, 2625, 5340 bunches per pulse • separated by 180, 369, 500 ns • power pulsing • readout speed • 14 mrad crossing angle • Background: • small bunches • create beamstrahlung → pairs Hit density (#/mm2/BX) Abraham Gallas
Forward tracking detector • Relevant physics processes with particles emitted at small : mostly e-, m, t, b- and c-jets • ILD's Forward Tracking Disks • The forward region 6° < < 30°: 0.1 rad < < 0.45 rad 0.9 < cos < 0.995 1.5 < | | < 3. Abraham Gallas
Detector design rationale • 25x25 mm pixel sensor instrumented with ROC derived from current Timepix (Timepix2-Timepix3) • Both ToT and ToA modes running simultaneously in each pixel • Time resolution of ∼10 ns or better (Timepix2 > 1.5ns (25ns/16)) allowing time stamping (bunch tagging) • Full readout between pulses (5Hz) or every 100BX • Power cycling leading to a 70% reduction on the time the ROC is ON (Timepix2 ∼45mW/pixel).

Timepix2 Main Requirements • Lots of different applications → Very demanding specs ! XAVIER LLOPART– CERN PH-ESE
Sensor thinning • Collaboration with CNM to thin 2D-pixel (55x55 μm) sensor from 300 μm down to 200, 150, 100 μm, p-on-n & n-on-p • Read out with TimePix ASIC • Goal: • Measure resolution, efficiency, … thin sensor • Minimal guard ring design. • Production of module/ladder with 3 ASICs Timepix on SOI 150mm 55Fe Abraham Gallas
Low mass bump bonding • Pixel detectors consist of a sensor chip and ROC which are connected with flip chip bumps. • One of the current technologies (FC µ-bump): • 20-30μm (SnPb, SnAgCu, SnAg, … ) • 40-… μm pixel pitch • For 55(25) μm pixel size adds 0.019(0.091) % Xo • Other technologies that can reduce considerably the material budget: • Solid-Liquid-Inter-Diffusion (SLID) Soldering: • 55 μm pixel sensor: 0.0027 % Xo • 25 μm pixel sensor: 0.013 % Xo • Carbon Nano Fiber (CNF) Interconnections (R&D stage): • 55 μm pixel sensor: 0.00087 % Xo • 25 μm pixel sensor: 0.0042 % Xo Abraham Gallas
In SLID tin, indium or other metals with low melting point (MP) are capped on high melting point (MP) pads, because: • Creation of intermetallic compounds (IMC) with the pad metal. • High planarity requirements of metal-metal bonding (e.g., Cu-Cu) are compensated. • Solid-Liquid-Inter-Diffusion (SLID) soldering, AKA Transient-Liquid-Phase (TLP). • Thin layer of solder turns completely into IMC ultra thin metallic joints! • After the first reflow the MP increases significantly and becomes thermally very stable. • Cu-Sn-Cu structure is the most commonly used, and with an optimized process Sn transforms to Cu3Sn in some minutes. • Step 2: • Cross-hatched Cu6Sn5 phase consumes the Sn aggressively. • Cu3Sn phase grows on at Cu interfaces. • Step 3: • All Sn has been transformed to IMC’s. • Cu3Sn is taking over Cu6Sn5 and grows at the expense of Cu6Sn5 and Cu. • Step 4: • After long heating, the ductile Cu3Sn expands over the whole area and forms the a thin joint. Solid-Liquid-Inter-Diffusion (SLID) Soldering • Step 1 • Sn reacts with Cu and creates IMC’s. • Cu6Sn5 phase grows in big scallops. • Beginning: • Thick Cu pads and < 5 µm of Sn. • Bonding at 270 – 300 ̊C.

Carbon Nano Fiber Interconnections • CERN has started a small project with Smoltek (Gothenburg, Sweden) to develop fine-pitch CNF interconnection technique for pixel chips. • Goal is set at growing 5 µm – 10 µm long fibres on chips and joining them together. • Electrical contacts will be tested with/without metal contacts. • CNF’s would be ultra-low mass interconnections. • Technology has prospects to be ultra-fine pitch capable. • High planarity of ROC and sensor is required. • First CNF forests have been deposited on CERN test vehicle chips. • Development plan has been made to improve the patterning resolution and to develop suitable flip chip processes.
