Our group is one of the few around the world that is developing low-gain avalanche diodes (LGADs), and we are among the first to develop AC-coupled LGADs. Exploiting large signals and fast timing, these sensors could support the detection of soft x-rays for photon science experiments and high-precision measurements of particle arrival times for high-energy physics experiments, including ATLAS and CMS at CERN.
