This last decade, synthetic poly crystal diamond features: reproducible,high quality, high radiation tolerance, and wafer size availability, making diamond an attractive sensor material in harsh radiation environment, like in the next generation of high luminosity collider experiments. Nevertheless, to make diamond sensors a viable and alternative solution to advanced radiation hard silicon sensors, the technological effort and costs must be affordable and a state-of-the-art low noise electronics must be used to cope with the low intrinsic signal.
