On July 16, 2023, the AIUB Community of Engineering Students (ACES) organized a seminar titled ‘3D Silicon Sensors: Solution to the high radiation Environment as the innermost tracker of the ATLAS Detector’. The program started at 4:00 pm with 40 pre-registered participants at Annex 3, AIUB. The seminar aimed to provide an overview of the ATLAS detector, silicon sensor, 3D sensor, particles, and radiation detectors. This solution will contribute to achieving the required power generation to make sustainable cities and communities.

Prof. Dr. ABM Siddique Hossain (Dean & Professor, Faculty of Engineering, AIUB), inaugurated the event, and discussed the importance and present-day scenario of nuclear science and material science, and provided insights into the working field of CERN. Following that, the honorable speaker, Alumnus of Department of EEE, AIUB Dr. Md. Arif Abdulla Samy (Post-Doctoral Researcher, TIFPA-INFN, Research Associate, CERN), began his speech by providing a brief overview of the Atlas Detector and the institute that researches Atlas, CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research). He also explained how the 3D sensors work, their design, and wafer layout. Furthermore, he discussed the opportunities at CERN for students and career development. Then, a short Q/A session was held for the participants. Dr. Md. Saniat Rahman Zishan (Director & Associate Professor, Faculty of Engineering, AIUB) concluded the seminar by thanking the speaker and presenting a token of appreciation.
