  Dark Matter In CCDs (DAMIC) is a silicon detector apparatus used primarily
for searching for low-mass dark matter using the silicon bulk of Charge-Coupled
Devices (CCDs) as targets. The silicon target within each CCD is
\SI{675}{\micro\meter} thick and its top surface is divided into over 16
million \SI{15}{\micro\meter} $\times$ \SI{15}{\micro\meter} pixels. The DAMIC
collaboration has installed a number of these CCDs at SNOLAB. As of 2019, DAMIC
at SNOLAB has reached operational conditions with leakage current less than
\SI{8.2e-22}{\ampere\per\centi\meter\squared} and a readout noise of
\SI{1.6}{\electron}, achieved with 5 CCDs. A new DAMIC apparatus will be
installed at Laboratoire Souterrain de Modane in a few years. The DAMIC at
Modane (DAMIC-M) collaboration will be using an improved version of CCDs
designed by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory with skipper amplifiers that
use non-destructive readout with multiple-sampling, enabling the CCDs to
achieve a readout noise of \SI{0.068}{\electron}. The low readout noise, in
conjunction with low leakage current of these skipper CCDs, will allow DAMIC-M
to observe physics processes with collisions energies as low as
\SI{1}{\electronvolt}. The DAMIC-M experiment will consist of an array of 50
large-area skipper CCDs with more than 36 million pixels in each CCD. The
following proceeding will introduce the DAMIC apparatus at SNOLAB and its
results and as well as the capabilities and the status of the new DAMIC-M
experiment.
