Short ( and incomplete) characteristics of CVD diamond detectors

Diamond as a detector material • low dielectric constant

low capacity

low noise • good heat conductivity

( 5 x higher than Cu )• large band gap of 5.5 eV

small signal (< half of a Si of similar size)

• high charge carrier velocity saturation

fast pulse response time

Diamond Crystal production• chemical vapour deposition (CVD)

commercial production• polycrystaline diamonds (PCD)

thickness 0.5-500m

max size ~ 5x5cm2

price ? (100 euro/det.)• single crystal diamond (SCD)

smaller ( 4x4 mm2)

better performance (energy resolution)

more expensive (5xPCD)

Diamond detectors performance• very fast timing

pulse risetime: 200 ps

width: 2ns (PCD) 5ns (SCD)• operating voltage 1 V/m• radiation hardness

-Tests with 2x1015 p/cm2 did not show any significant deterioration of a sig./noise

-pumping effect (PCD) : improvement with increasing dose• position resolution

below 10m can be achieved with strip detectors X and Y• efficiency

70%PCD-100% PCD• Diamonds as TOF detectors

tests with 1GeV/u U beam resulted in TOF of =20 ps

Cr-Au foil ~0.1m
