Three-dimensional diamond planar spiral detectors by Rebecca J. Watkins, Patrick S. Salter, Ralph J. Moors, Richard B. Jackman

“…However, even high quality single crystal diamond can degrade after high doses of radiation, resulting in a reduction in carrier mean free path. It is well known that reducing the carrier collection distance, by decreasing the detector electrode spacing, makes radiation detectors more tolerant of mean free path reduction, and therefore more resilient to high radiation doses. …”
