  High radiation hardness, chemical resistance, high temperature operation
capabilities stimulate a growing interest to use diamond materials as detectors
of ionizing radiation. Samples of CVD-diamond materials in sizes 12 square mm
and 4 square mm with thickness from 50 microns up to 500 microns have been
grown in INR RAS using a DC glow discharge in a mixture of gases CH4/H2 on
molybdenum substrates.
