The Advanced Particle Detector Lab (APD-Lab) at Texas Tech University is a 5,000-SQF facility that houses a large ISO7 cleanroom, labs, open large work space, loading dock, and offices. It is built for high-energy particle detector R&D and an assembly of over 5,000 silicon modules for the next generation of high-granularity calorimeters (so-called HGCAL) to be deployed at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at the European Organization for Nuclear Research, known as CERN, a research organization that operates the largest particle physics laboratory in the world in Geneva, Switzerland. The HGCAL is a multi-million dollar project funded by the US Department of Energy. TTU's high-energy physics team is internationally recognized as leaders in the development and construction of calorimeters, which are a type of detector that measures the energies of fundamental particles from high energy collisions. Currently, HEP faculty, postdoctoral fellows, engineers, technicians, graduate and undergraduate students work in the APD-Lab. Our mid-term plans call for enhancing our current capabilities through full-time staffing by engineers who are high-level electronics designers. We aim to build a preeminent institution in the area of particle physics detectors at the most advanced level.
