Ionizing Radiation Effects in Electronics - Bog

This book describes the effects of ionizing radiation on modern semiconductor devices. It also discusses hardening-by-design solutions for custom chips. The text covers a range of devices, from memories and microprocessors to mixed-analog components and imagers. It addresses the experimental aspects as well as the simulation of radiation effects in electronic devices. It deals with several environments of interest, including terrestrial, space, and high-energy physics. The book provides a solid theoretical background, yet is practical enough to assist in making effective use of beam time.
