Accelerated tests for bounding the low dose rate radiation response of lateral PNP bipolar junction transistors

Fleetwood, Daniel M.

Low dose rate gain degradation of lateral pnp bipolar transistors can be simulated by accelerated irradiations performed at approximately 135 degrees C. Degradation enhancement is explained by temperature- dependent radiation-induced interface trap formation above the transistor`s base.
