Characterization and Analysis of Radiation Effects on Semiconductor Technologies

Electrical Engineering

Summary

Aerospace, medical imaging and military devices are regularly exposed to damaging ionizing radiation. This can lead to higher power consumption, device degradation and even device failure. To support radiation hardened design, this project aims to demonstrate laser-assisted device alteration (LADA) as a non-destructive technique for detecting interface trapped charges induced by exposure to gamma radiation.
