Abstract The detection of space radiation environment has become a hot spot in the research of space environment in recent years due to the demand for mitigating or eliminating the hazards of radiation environment to spacecraft and astronauts. Various detectors have been applied to determining space radiation environment, such as gas detector, scintillator detector and semiconductor detector, among which the semiconductor detector has been gradually prevailing over the two others owing to the advantages of high energy resolution, high detection efficiency, etc. Diamond detector, as a kind of semiconductor detector, possesses high detection accuracy, favorable environment resistance, dispensability of refrigeration, long life and outstanding radiation resistance, thereby especially suitable for long-period and strong-radiation deep space exploration. Moreover, the wide band gap of diamond makes its photon response exclusive of visible light and enables solar-blind detection, so the European space agency (ESA) has utilized diamond for solar ultraviolet detection. A multi-particle combinational detection device, i.e. cosmic ray spectrometer, which has been under construction by Russian Industry Technology Center, is capable of synchronous detection of electrons, protons and heavy particles though the available energy intervals mainly locates at intermediate/high-energy region. On the basis of the application of diamond detector in single-particle radiation detection and the space complex multi-particle radiation environment, the feasible scheme to the blueprint of space radiation environment engineering of China includes: improving the detector’s energy resolution by designing multilayer-diamond-film-based single-particle radiation detector, reconstructing the detector matrix for multiple particle coincidence detection, extending the detection interval to low-energy region by introducing the artificial neural network algorithm into data proces-sing. The achievement of diamond detector with effective whole-energy-region detection will doubtlessly facilitate its application to space station, deep space radiation engineering, etc.
