Abstract

Results of the experimental study of boron-doped single-crystal synthetic diamond substrates and thin homoepitaxial diamond films grown on them with the predetermined properties are discussed. The homogeneity of the substrates and films is examined. Diamond detectors based on the grown diamond structures have been produced. The sensitivity of these detectors to UV photons, X and γ rays, α particles, and fast neutrons under stationary and pulsed irradiation has been determined.
