Depletion zone calculation of MAPS detectors using TCAD simulations

The volume of the depleted region of the collecting diode plays a vital role in the charge collection when an ionization particle traverses the Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor (MAPS) detector. Thus the volume of the depletion region should be large enough to collect majority electron-hole pairs generated by the ionization particle otherwise they will diffuse and eventually will take longer time for them to be collected. This report is about simulating a collecting diode (sector 4) with increased resistivity, in TCAD. After that comparing the results with the results of a low resistive collecting diode.
