Natural diamond MicroDiamond

Good water equivalence of Carbon for high energy photon and electron beams

High sensitivity: 0.5uC/Gy (dimensions can be reduced)

Low temperature dependence < 1%/K

Stable response with accumulated dose (< 0.05% per kGy)

Natural Diamond (60003-PTW) MicroDiamond (60019-PTW)

Polarization needed (100 V)

No Polarization (Schottky diode conf.)

High response variability between
