New calorimeter technology is being developed for future collider experiments. We are developing a calorimeter that integrates two technologies, a high-granularity calorimeter and a dual-readout calorimeter, and has high time resolution at a picosecond level. The proposed calorimeter is a sampling calorimeter based on scintillation and Cherenkov detectors with high-granularity readout. The Cherenkov detector has a picosecond level time resolution. For the high-granularity scintillation detector, scintillator strips of 300mm × 30mm ×3mm-thick are aligned horizontally and vertically to realize an effective 30mm-square-cell segmentation. Prototype strips with different designs and scintillator materials were tested to compare the performance.
