MIMOSIS is a CMOS Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor developed to equip the Micro Vertex Detector of the Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment at FAIR/GSI. The sensor will combine an excellent spatial precision of $5~\mu m$ with a time resolution of $5~\mu s$ and provide a peak hit rate capability of $\mathrm{\sim 80~ MHz/cm^2}$. To fulfill its task, MIMOSIS will have to withstand ionising radiation doses of $\sim 5~ \mathrm{MRad}$ and fluences of $\sim 7 \times 10^{13}~\mathrm{n_{eq}/cm^2}$ per year of operation. This paper introduces the reticle size full feature sensor prototype MIMOSIS-2.1, which was improved with respect to earlier prototypes by adding on-chip grouping circuts and by improving the analog power grid. Moreover, it features for a first time a $50~\mu m$ epitaxial layer, which is found to improve the performances of the non-irradiated device significantly. We discuss the in beam sensor performances as measured during beam tests at the CERN-SPS., Comment: 6 pages, 7 figures

The Micro Vertex Detector (MVD) is the most upstream detector of the fixed-target Compressed Baryonic Matter Experiment (CBM) at the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR). It enables high-precision low-momentum tracking in direct proximity of the target. Reaching the stringent requirements for the MVD, a material budget of~$0.3\,-\,0.5\%\,X_0$ per layer, operating the dedicated CMOS MAPS~(`MIMOSIS') in the target vacuum, the strong magnetic dipole field, and a harsh radiation environment~(5\,Mrad, $7\times10^{13}\,n_{\text{eq}}/\text{cm}^2$ per CBM year), poses an unprecedented integration challenge. In this paper, the integration concept of the detector is be outlined, elaborating on the selection and preparation of materials, assembly procedures, and quality assessment steps in the ongoing preparation of pre-series production and detector commissioning in 2028., Comment: Titlepage + 5 pages, 9 figures, proceedings for Pixel 2024
