In the field of particle physics, these detectors are usually known as silicon detectors.

The measurements closest to the collision are made using silicon detectors.

The silicon detector was to be installed next, but it was still being built.

An engineering run was taken until the silicon detector was ready for installation in February 2000.

The silicon detector was a three-layer device, arranged in octants.

The silicon detector achieved 85% efficiency after installation, but soon began to suffer increasingly large inefficiencies.

This part of the detector is the world's largest silicon detector.

Surrounding the beam pipe is the silicon detector.

As in the silicon detector, when a charged particle passes through the chamber it ionizes the gas.

They use a precision optical metrology system (designed to scan silicon detectors) to form an image of the groove on a 78 rpm record.
