معرفی
Piotr Maj is Professor at the Department of Metrology and Electronics within the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Automatics, Computer Science and Biomedical Engineering at AGH University of Science and Technology in Kraków. His research focuses on semiconductor radiation detectors and readout electronics for nuclear physics, medical imaging, and space applications.
His primary research areas include Radiation Detection using CZT and TlBr semiconductors, ASIC Design for photon counting systems, and Position-Sensitive Detector development. Key specialties encompass virtual Frisch-grid technology, event-driven readout architectures, and integration of machine learning for real-time signal processing in high-energy physics environments. His work frequently involves synchrotron radiation facilities and space instrumentation projects.
Analysis of his 2023-2025 publications reveals dominant trends in radiation-hard ASIC development for space missions (e.g., HEXID, EDWARD architectures), 3D position-sensitive detector characterization (CdZnTe/TlBr arrays), and machine learning integration for in-pixel intelligence. His detector systems target applications in gamma-ray astronomy, nuclear security, and biomedical imaging, with emphasis on high-speed, low-noise performance under extreme conditions.
