DESCRIPTION:The current B Factories physics program has been extremely suc
 cessful in advancing fundamental heavy quark physics and setting limits on
  new physics. A future high luminosity Super B Factory can refine these me
 asurements and has the potential of measuring coupling and phases of new p
 hysics. After outlining the physics program of a Super B Factory and summa
 rizing the machine and detector challenges I will concentrate on silicon t
 racking and vertexing issues. Given the high rate and the low momentum of 
 particles\, tracking and vertexing detectors require fine segmentation and
  low material budget. Most silicon pixel and strip detectors installed in 
 high energy physics experiments today use separate substrates and differen
 t fabrication technologies for the charge collection and amplification dev
 ices. This hybrid approach has been very successful because it allows the 
 separate optimization of the charge detector and the amplifier\, but requi
 res sophisticated interconnection techniques and in general causes an incr
 ease in the thickness as well as the mechanical complexity of the detector
  elements. Since many years\, researchers have investigated the possibilit
 y of fabricating both the charge collection and the amplification elements
  on the same substrate to realize monolithic silicon detectors. I will rev
 iew the several approaches to the problem that have been tried and summari
 ze the current status. I will then discuss the most interesting future dir
 ections of the R&D\, and in particular the development of monolithic activ
 e pixel detectors using commercial CMOS technology and their application f
 or the Super B Factory physics program.\n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event
