“…In 2004, in order to improve the signal amplitude of a pCVD beam monitor detector, H. Pernegger tested a configuration of sensors such that the charge released in two sensors traversed simultaneously by the same charged particle is read out by the same amplifier input: the "double-diamond assembly" (DD) [8]. Later also Benardzick [9] and Cardarelli [10] tried a similar configuration.…”

In order to improve the time precision of detectors based on diamonds sensors we have built a detector with two scCVD layers connected in parallel to the same amplifier. This note describes the design and the first measurements of such a prototype performed on a particle beam at CERN. With this different configuration we have obtained an improvement on the timing precision of a factor of 1.6-1.7 with respect to a single layer scCVD diamond detector.

The basic properties of high‐quality CVD diamond film make them very interesting for a wide range of detectors: they are radiation hard, provide fast signals, show very low leakage current even in high radiation environments, have excellent thermal properties and can be manufactured as free‐standing detectors. This paper will give an overview of recent test results on polycrystalline and single crystal CVD diamond detectors. Large polycrystalline CVD diamonds with a charge collection distance up to 300 μm have been tested and are used to build prototype tracking detectors and beam monitors at the moment. Further irradiation studies have been carried out using a 24 GeV proton beam to test samples up to a total fluence of 1.8 × 1016 protons/cm2. Measurements on several samples of single‐crystal CVD diamonds have shown full charge collection in the detector. Results of transient‐current measurements on single crystal CVD diamonds, which are used to determine the charge carrier mobility and lifetime, show the excellent electrical properties of this material. The paper will present several different applications of CVD diamond detectors, which benefit from the recent improvements of detector‐grade diamonds. They range from tracking in High Energy Physics experiments, to high‐speed Beam Conditions Monitor at the collider experiments up to CVD diamond detectors as beam diagnostic in proton cancer therapy.
