This is the first comprehensive overview describing the effects of ionizing radiation on MOS devices, and how to design, fabricate, and test integrated circuits intended for use in a radiation environment. It also addresses process-induced radiation effects in the fabrication of high-density circuits, and reviews the history of radiation-hard technology, providing background information for those new to the field. The book includes a comprehensive review of the literature, and an annotated listing of research activities in radiation-hardness research. The volume will be of benefit to semi conductor process development engineers, device and circuit development engineers, device physicists, reliability assurance engineers, project managers and stress analysts.
