3 PREFACE CIVIDEC Instrumentation, situated in Vienna, was founded in 2009 on the cutting edge technology of CERN, Geneva. CIVIDEC specializes in the fabrication of radiation monitors for beam diagnostics based on CVD diamond detectors and on low-noise high-speed preamplifiers that fully exploit the intrinsic properties of the scvd and pcvd diamond detectors in combination with state-of-the art digital readout systems. In the past years we have developed new types of diamond beam monitors: Beam Loss Monitors for beam-loss measurements from 1 MIP particle to 1E9 MIP particles per bunch with a time resolution of 1 ns and a double-pulse resolution of less than 10 ns. Neutron Monitors for fast neutrons and for thermal neutrons. The neutron monitors combine the high efficiency of diamond detectors with their excellent radiation hardness and fast signal readout. X-Ray Beam Monitors were the invention of the year. They are made for ultra-precise beam position measurements and for X-ray beam intensity measurements in combination with our new electronics. We provide the full readout chain from the detector, dedicated preamplifiers and our digital readout system ROSY with real-time signal processing and sampling rates of 5 GS/s. FPGA solutions provide real-time signal processing of customized applications. In this product catalogue we are proud to present to you our first X-Ray Diamond Beam Position Monitor, which provides an unprecedented spatial resolution of 0.1 % in combination with an excellent X-ray transparency below 5 kev. The position resolution is better than 10 nm for small beams of 10 um. This product uses our new low-noise high dynamic range electrometer amplifiers.

5 ALL OUR DIAMOND BEAM MONITORS HAVE BEEN OPTIMIZED TO CUSTOMER-SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS. It has long been known that diamonds generate electrical signals when irradiated. The advent of scvd and pcvd diamond made it possible to provide detector material with precise shapes and uniform properties. Advanced electronics allows the pico-second structure of the diamond response to be fully exploited and provides the elements needed for an extremely wide range of high-energy particle detectors.

Singleparticle losses can be recorded in the AC mode and particle loss cascades in the DC mode with a very high dynamic range. These Beam Loss Monitors are in operation at the LHC at CERN. The sensitivity of the diamond detector to single particles in combination with a time resolution of 1 ns ideally complements CERN s existing Beam Loss Monitors, which are based on ionization chambers.

38 D1 AC-DC Splitter The AC-DC Splitter is used to interconnect a detector, a preamplifier and a pico-ammeter. The AC-DC Splitter decouples the AC part from the DC part of the detector signal. This allows single particles to be recorded on the AC path and the detector current to be measured on the DC path.
