A study of ion energy and its effects upon an SEGR-hardened stripe-cell MOSFET technology [space-bas

Experimental observations of an improved single-event gate rupture (SEGR) hardened stripe-cell MOSFET demonstrated that ion beam energy, penetration depth, and strike angle (tilt angle) have a significant influence upon the measured SEGR failure threshold voltage.
