What about building a rectifier from scratch out of a fluro tube? A 4' long tube should hold off a megavolt or two... It would be a fairly simple task 
to remove one of the filaments and replace it with a anode plate, then pump it down to a hard vacuum (or abouts). Why go solid state? Although i 
cant imagine what the response time on something like that would be... just a thought...
