DCSI – through it’s associated company in Ireland Spectrum
– are partners in the EU funded
Diamond Project
The Development of Innovative,
Accurate, Monolithic,
CVD Diamond Array Based Radiation Dosimeter System
The DIAMOND project will develop an innovative, high resolution, monolithic
CVD diamond array based dosimeter which will deliver the levels of performance
required by IMRT. There is no other commercially available technology that can
offer this. The science and technology required to do this will be challenging,
yet the partnership comprises some of Europe's leading research and industrial
companies.
The consortiums innovations in
CVD diamond deposition, (PIP)
overcoming priming effects and sensor fabrication
ultra low signal conditioning electronics with a self evaluation system
to monitor degradation
will enable us to achieve our goals.
The market potential for such a product is estimated to be worth over €100
million.
