Abstract

Abstract Detector grade CVD diamond samples have been irradiated with neutrons from a spallation source with an average energy of 5 MeV up to fluences of 6.5×1015 n cm−2. After each irradiation stage the samples were characterised in terms of their charge collection efficiency, priming ratio and priming dose. It was found that the charge collection efficiency degrades with increasing neutron fluence for all investigated samples. The sensitivity to neutron radiation is found to be strongly sample-dependent. The experimental data can be well described by a simple damage model.
