  • Diamond-based sensor device for use in hostile environments
    Patent number: 11506625
    Abstract: A sensor device is provided to sample data from a fluid in a sealed environment. The sensor comprises a housing and a diamond within the housing. The housing is formed such that the device is reversibly insertable into the sealed environment so that the diamond directly interfaces with the sealed environment.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 3, 2017
    Date of Patent: November 22, 2022
    Assignee: UCL Business LTD
    Inventors: Richard B. Jackman, Ralph Jennings-Moors, Alexander C. Pakpour-Tabrizi, William Parfitt, Joseph O. Welch

  • Electron multiplier detector formed from a highly doped nanodiamond layer
    Patent number: 9035540
    Abstract: A system for detecting electromagnetic radiation or an ion flow, including an input device for receiving the electronic radiation or the ion flow and emitting primary electrons in response, a multiplier of electrons in transmission, for receiving the primary electrons and emitting secondary electrons in response, and an output device for receiving the secondary electrons and emitting an output signal in response. The electron multiplier includes at least one nanocrystalline diamond layer doped with boron in a concentration of higher than 5·1019 cm?3.

  • Electron multiplier device having a nanodiamond layer
    Patent number: 8912526
    Abstract: An electron multiplier for a system for detecting electromagnetic radiation or an ion flow is disclosed. The multiplier includes at least one active structure intended to receive a flow of incident electrons, and to emit in response a flow of electrons called secondary electrons. The active structure includes a substrate on which is positioned a thin nanodiamond layer formed from diamond particles the average size of which is less than or equal to about 100 nm.
