The DC electronic response of a small area polycrystalline diamond film irradiated by a low energy X-ray beam has been analysed. The relationship between the induced photocurrent and the X-ray flux has been investigated making use of an X-ray absorber method. Aluminium foils have been used to attenuate the direct beam and the metal–diamond–metal device response tested at several electric field values. The X-ray photocurrent shows a linear response of the device that has been observed for a large range of X-ray flux values.

Abstract
The DC electronic response of a small area polycrystalline diamond film irradiated by a low energy X-ray beam has been analysed. The relationship between the induced photocurrent and the X-ray flux has been investigated making use of an X-ray absorber method. Aluminium foils have been used to attenuate the direct beam and the metal–diamond–metal device response tested at several electric field values. The X-ray photocurrent shows a linear response of the device that has been observed for a large range of X-ray flux values.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
