  • Abstract
    Diamond dosimeters for intense ionizing radiation were assembled by developing Ohmic contacts on single-crystal high-purity diamond films. Leakage electrical resistivity of the order of 1014 Ω cm was measured. Devices were tested with a low-intensity 17.48 keV X-ray beam to probe their maximum sensitivity and the minimum detectable dose-rate. Diamond detectors provided a linearity coefficient to X-ray dose-rate of 1.023±0.07, whose dependence on operative bias voltage is here analyzed.
