CVD diamonds: Recent Developments and Applications
H. Pernegger, CERN for the CERN RD42 collaboration
Overview Detector principle Recent advancements in CVD diamonds and their understanding
Signal collection Radiation hardness New CVD diamonds
Applications in HEP and other fields Pixel detector for HEP Beam monitoring & diagnistics Medical application
H. Pernegger, CERN, IPRD 2004, May 2004
Motivation to use CVD diamonds
Use at LHC/SLHC (or similar environments) Precision tracking at inner layer required Must survive the radiation levels typically present at small radia
Material properties Radiation hard (no frequent replacements) Fast signal collection time Compact + low Z solid state detector Room temperature operation
Basic types of material Poly-crystalline CVD diamond (pCVD) Single-crystal CVD diamond (scCVD)
H. Pernegger, CERN, IPRD 2004, May 2004
Basic material constants in comparison
Low dielectric constant- low capacitance
High bandgap - low leakage current Fast signal collection
Mip signal only 50% of Silicon for same radiation length
Collection efficiency <100% (pCVD)
H. Pernegger, CERN, IPRD 2004, May 2004
Basic Principle of Operation
“Solid state Ionization chamber” Contacts both sides No doping or junction
required “planar”
Structured electrodes with sizes from m to cm
Signal Typically use integrated
amplifiers for readout Collection distance d = E Measured charge Q = d/t Q0
Extract carrier lifetimes from measurement of total charge
Lifetime: >35 ns for electrons and holes -> larger than transit time Charge trapping doesn’t seems to limit signal lifetime -> full charge collection (for typical operation
voltages and thickness)
H. Pernegger, CERN, IPRD 2004, May 2004
Applications of CVD diamonds
In general CVD diamond is used as detector material in several fields HEP and nuclear phyics Heavy ion beam diagnostics Synchroton radiation monitoring Neutron and detection ….
(Short) Selection of Applications in this presentation
Pixel detector developments using CVD diamond detector Beam Conditions Monitoring (e.g. at LHC) Beam diagnostics for radiotheraphy with proton beams

Application I:Pixel Detectors with ATLAS & CMS FE chips
Use present implementation of radhard FE chips together with pCVD (later possible scCVD) diamonds
Bumpbonding yields ≈ 100% now

Application II: Beam Conditions Monitoring
“DC current” Uses beam induced DC current
to measure dose rate close to IP Benefits from very low intrinsic
leakage current of diamond Can measure at very high
particle rates Simple DC (or slow
amplification) readout Examples: See talk by M.Bruinsma for
BaBar Similar in Belle Similar method planned for CMS
Single particle counting Counts single particles Benefits from fast diamond
signal Allows more sophisticated logic
coincidences, timing measurements
Used at high particle rates up to Requires fast electronics (GHz
range) with very low noise
Examples CMS and Atlas Beam conditions
monitor
Common Goal: measure interaction rates & background levels in high radiation environment
Input to background alarm & beam abort
H. Pernegger, CERN, IPRD 2004, May 2004
Beamloss scenario: study for CMS (1)
E.g. accidental unsynchronized beam abort Instantaneous , difficult to protect against
Unsynchronised beam abort: ~1012 protons lost in IP 5 (CMS) in 260ns
and 4x108 C-ions (0,4 nA) Beam size: 4x4 mm2 to 10x10
mm2
Diamonds used for Beam Diagnostics:
High-speed Counting of single particles in extraction line
Resolve beam time structure

Summary
CVD diamonds as radiation hard detectors High quality polycrystalline CVD diamonds (ccd up to 270m) are readily
available now in large sizes Radiation tests showed radiation hardness up to 2 x 1015 p/cm2
Single crystal CVD diamonds promise to overcome limitations of polycrystalline CVD diamonds Full signal collection already at lower voltages Long charge lifetime Very little charge trapping and uniform detector (no grain boudaries)
There are many applications around which benefit from diamond’s intrinsic properties Strip or Pixel detectors for future high luminosity accelerators Beam diagnostics and monitoring
