X-ray radiation effects in Overlapping Circular-Gate MOSFET's

Abstract

IV-characteristics from ELT Overlapping Circular-Gate Transistors (O-CGT's) and rectangular-gate transistors are cross-checked after X-ray exposure. No degradation on O-CGT subthreshold behavior observed for doses up to 2.3 Grad. Devices were prototyped on standard 0.35 μm CMOS process.
