Over the past 25 years, extensive R&D has been carried out
on Monolithic Active
Pixel Sensors based on CMOS technology. This has brought the technology to the
level where it is now, a viable option for vertexing and tracking detection systems
in particle and nuclear physics
experiments
exposed to radiation fluencies
of up to
10
15
1MeV
neutron equivalent per square centimeter, reaching impressive
performance in terms of signal/noise ratio, spatial resolution, material budget and readout speed. Owing to their high granularity and intrinsic high time resolution,
CMOS sensors are also being considered recently
for the development of digital
calorimeters and 4-D tracking with the measurement of the time-of-flight.
I will first
review the
recent developments in the field of CMOS sensors, their use
in particle and nuclear physics experiments as well as some application in the filed
of medical imaging. I will then
discuss the prospects for
future applications and
novel
detection systems with some examples on the
measurement of
charmed
hadrons.
