Abstract

An artificially grown high purity diamond was used as a detector for alpha-particle spectrometry. Diamond detectors can match the performance of silicon detectors employed in standard continuous air monitoring systems. Its radiation hardness and electronic properties make them ideal to work under extreme condition such as high temperature and ambient lights. A 50μm thickness single-crystal diamond detector has been compared with a 300μm passivated implanted planar silicon detector, under ambient conditions.
