HEP-Astro Seminar | Skipper-CCDs: Current Applications and Future

Brenda Cervantes (Fermilab)

https://umich.zoom.us/j/91409362110?pwd=UDlja2FuYlZWVFNEMWFrOTlkWFNEZz09

Scientific Charge-Coupled Devices (CCDs) have been widely used in astronomy and particle physics due to their great spatial resolution and sensitivity to low-energy signals. The skipper-CCD, a recently developed sensor, allows to measure single-electron signals with sub-electron noise, making its application very attractive in experiments where a low-energy threshold is required. In this talk I will describe the skipper-CCD technology and discuss its current usage in dark matter and
neutrino experiments. Furthermore, I will give an overview of the ongoing efforts for constructing multi-kg experiments with skipper-CCDs.
