Abstract

Section titled ā€œAbstractā€

The realization and characterization of a compact 64-pixel detector based on CVD-dia-
\nmond is here presented and discussed. Each pixel has been connected to a dedicated multichannel
\nread-out electronics designed for acquisition, conditioning and elaboration of the pixel-signal, al-
\nlowing a real-time beam profile reconstruction of the impinging radiation. The back-side semi-
\ntransparent contact was used for diamond sensor biasing. Detector characterization was per-
\nformed under a weak continuous UV light spot obtained at the output of a monochromator illumi-
\nnated by a deuterium lamp. Sensor was also characterized by X-ray illumination evaluating both
\ndisplacement and broadening of impinging spot. Finally, photodetector response was observed un-
\nder pulsed UV laser light, demonstrating the feasibility of a real-time beam monitoring for such a
\nkind of light source.
