Description
Pixel Detectors as the current technology of choice for the innermost
vertex detection have now reached a stage where large detectors have
been built for the LHC experiments and a new era of developments,
both for hybrid and for monolithic and semi-monolithic pixel
detectors is in full swing. This is largely driven by the
requirements of the Super-LHC and by collider experiments which plan
to use monolithic pixel detectors for the first time such as STAR at
RHIC and Super-BELLE. The talk will give an overview over current
developments on hybrid pixel detectors as well as on so-called active
pixel detectors for particle tracking and vertexing including MAPS
and DEPFET pixels.
