In this Paper we describe the performance of a rad-hard diode (Al/p+/n/n+/Al), developed in the framework of research and development programs for the future CMS experiment at LHC, for detection and spectrometry of X-and gamma-rays envisaging its use in characterization of porous structures by X-ray tomography. The diode's response was studied using 57Co, 133Ba, and 241Am radioactive sources at room...
