个人简介
Erik HEIJNE studied solid-state physics at the Universiteit van Amsterdam and came to CERN in 1973, to work on silicon detectors for monitoring of the neutrino beams. He pioneered the use of segmented silicon devices for the imaging of elementary particle interactions: microstrip detectors in 1980 and micropattern pixel detectors in 1989. Then much higher detection rates and micrometer precision became possible. After a stay at IMEC in Leuven, he initiated CMOS design at CERN in 1986. Integrated circuits now are the heart of all experiments in particle physics. In 1995 he suggested a different radhard circuit design approach. The main innovation with the complex Si devices, is the possibility to make images using single, individual energetic quanta incident on the pixels. Each pixel has sophisticated circuitry to determine the properties of a quantum. The Timepix3 measures energy, above ~1.5keV, and arrival time of the signal with a precision of 1.56ns. Imagers beyond particle physics experiments were developed in the Medipix Collaborations with spokesman Michael CAMPBELL. Timpix3 can do molecular imaging mass spectroscopy by high-resolution time-of-flight, as described in her 2012 PhD thesis by Julia Helga JUNGMANN, which may allow real-time medical tissue analysis during surgery. The earlier Timepix quantum imager already is being applied for energy-resolved medical computed tomography, where the energy information for each X-ray quantum provides indications on the composition in muscle, bone, blood, fat in the scanned volume.
Erik Heijne is a Fellow of the IEEE. He gave a plenary talk on chips in the CERN LHC at the 2014 IEEE-ISSCC in San Francisco, http.ISSC.org. 2017 he received the High Energy and Particle Physics Prize of the EPS, with R. Klanner and G. Lutz, "for pioneering contributions to the development of silicon microstrip detectors that revolutionised high-precision tracking and vertexing in high energy physics experiments".
