Serena Mattiazzo

Topic:

TID mechanisms on nanoscale CMOS technologies

Biography:

Serena Mattiazzo received the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Physics from the University of Padova, Italy, where she is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy "G. Galilei". Her research focuses on the development of innovative silicon pixel
detectors and on the study of radiation damage in silicon microelectronic devices and sensors. She is a member of the ALICE Collaboration at CERN, contributing to the development of an advanced vertex detector based on MAPS technology. In the field of radiation damage, she is involved in projects on radiation-hard electronics for High Energy Physics using deep submicron CMOS technologies.

Flavio Loddo

Topic:

RD53 pixel ASICs for the ATLAS and CMS Phase-2 upgrades at HL-LHC

Biography:

Flavio Loddo started his activity as an ASIC designer in the 90s, when he participated in the development of the HCAL Readout ASIC for ALEPH experiment, at LEP. In 1998 he started his activity as technologist in the Bari unit of INFN, where he designed the Front-End ASIC of the RPC detectors for the CMS experiment at LHC and served as coordinator of the CMS RPC Electronics. He participated in the development of the VFAT3 ASIC to readout the CMS GEM detectors. He then spent 10 years in the RD53 Collaboration as a designer and Project Engineer to develop the Pixel Readout chips for the Phase-2 upgrades of ATLAS and CMS experiments at the HL-LHC. He is currently head of the Electronics Service in the INFN Bari unit and is also involved in the ASIC design for the upgrades of ALICE and LHCb.
