FBK IRIS

IRIS (Integrated Readout ASICs and Image Sensors) is a research unit in the Center for Sensors and Devices (SD Center) of FBK, counting about 15 people among researchers, technicians, and PhD students. We focus our research on the development of advanced solid-state image sensors, using state-of-the-art CMOS technologies, with special and fully customizable features. Single-photon imagers, digital Silicon Photomultipliers, low-power vision sensors, monolithic active pixel sensors, and infrared and terahertz sensing devices are among the expertise of IRIS. Our solutions portfolio starts from the study and physical design of the sensor device, the tuning of the fabrication process and its implementation, the design and simulations of integrated electronics, up to the development of module- and system-level electronics and optics with complete electrical and optical characterization.
