Solid State Detectors (SSD) are crucial for fast neutron detection and spectroscopy in tokamaks due to their solid structure, neutron-gamma discrimination, and magnetic field resistance. They provide high energy resolutions without external conversion stages, enabling compact array installations in the harsh environment of a tokamak. Research comparing diamond and 4H-SiC detectors highlights thickness as a key efficiency factor. A 250 μm SiC epilayer with low doping, grown using a high-growth-rate process, exhibits sharp interfaces and minimal defects, essential for neutron detectors. The study evaluates detector designs, and performance using a 4H-SiC substrate. Various detector designs, such as Schottky diodes and p/n diodes, are assessed via I-V and C-V measurements, addressing high depletion voltage challenges. Preliminary neutron irradiation tests validate detector functionality, energy resolution …
