Abstract :
The test beam carried out at the CERN SPS with a 3D and an epitaxial silicon sensor bump-bonded to the ALICE pixel front-end chip is described in this paper. Both sensors are prototypes fabricated at FBK: the 3D is a Double-Sided Double-Type Column (DDTC) sensor while the epitaxial is planar and has been thinned to 100 μm thickness by VTT during the flip-chip bonding process. Some very preliminary results on the detector performance are presented.
