Abstract
Substantial progress has been made in CVD diamond and GaAs detectors (in both pad and microstrip geometry). The former have achieved charge collection distances around 100 μm and have been used successfully in an electromagnetic calorimeter prototype. In microstrip detectors, both types have functioned satisfactorily, with good spatial resolution. The diamond detectors are shown to have excellent radiation hardness to gamma-rays, pions and protons GaAs detectors have been shown to perform adequately for LHC applications with respect to neutron hardness, but give indications of greater sensitivity to high-energy protons.
