Summary: The collaboration between ST Microelectronics, INFN LNS and Catania University gave birth to the design of a monolithic silicon /spl Delta/E-E detector telescope in the last years. Using ion implantation techniques, the /spl Delta/E stage of that telescope was integrated on the same silicon E detector and an ultra thin /spl Delta/E stage (/spl ap/ 1 /spl mu/m thick) with an excellent charge resolution for low energy (less than 5 MeV) ions was obtained. The positive experience, we got from that already developed silicon monolithic /spl Delta/E-E telescope, encouraged its to work on a new generation detector. Our aim is to develop a large area "multidetector" device able to give not only a good charge resolution for low energy ions but also position information. The feasibility of this kind of detector has been verified by 2D simulations carried out by DESSIS ISE/sup (*)/ device simulator.
