Combined effect of radiation and temperature on the response of polyimide coated radiation hardened single-mode fibers is investigated in the context of distributed monitoring of large nuclear infrastructures. Radiation induced attenuation (RIA) is evaluated for doses ranging from 1 to 10 MGy(SiO2) and temperatures up to ∼250 °C. Measurements of fiber tensile strength are performed to better estimate conditions of safe operation before and after exposure to the severe environment. Finally, preliminary results obtained for a new optical fiber designed from an alternative preform fabrication process, Surface Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition are presented. This fiber exhibits 1310 nm RIA below 7 dB/km after a 1 MGy(SiO2) dose paving the way toward optical fibers suited to extreme radiation environments.

This work presents the radiation tolerance of a Warm Frond-End Electronics subsystem (WFEE), using Radiation Hardening By Design (RHBD) techniques based on a SiGe BiCMOS 350 nm ASIC technology. The subsystem is in the context of a developing X-Ray space observatory of ESA, named ATHENA, planned to operate in a halo orbit around the second Lagrangian point (L2 Sun - Earth) with 5-year lifetime at the end of the next decade. The WFEE is a mixed electronic system, including analog devices, such as low noise amplifier and current sources for amplifying and biasing cryogenic stages, and also integrating digital devices: serial decoders RS485/ I2C for configuring the current sources. Because of extreme radiation space environment, different RHBD techniques have been used to improve the radiation tolerance of the WFEE electronics. The tolerance against radiation effects TID and SEL have been assessed. The evolution of the main parameters of the amplifier (gain and noise) and of the current sources (output current and noise) with respect to different dose levels has also been measured. The measurements after irradiations show that the RHBD techniques are very effective for improving radiation hardening capabilities of electronic circuits based on this technology.

In this paper, based on the sequential irradiation of 40 MeV Si ions and Co-60 gamma ray, a direct evidence of the annealing effect of ionization damage on displacement damage in 2N2219 NPN bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) is investigated. Electrical parameters are measured using KEITHLEY 4200-SCS semiconductor characterization system during irradiation. The radiation induced defects are characterized by deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS). The experimental results show that the degradation of current gain for the F2N2219 BJTs for the sum of the independent Co-60 gamma radiation and heavy ion irradiation is larger than that for the sequential irradiations, indicating the existence of significant synergistic effect. For lower fluence of 40 MeV Si ions, when the dose of Co-60 gamma ray is lower, the excess base current of the irradiated transistors by the sequential irradiation is less than one of the irradiated transistors by the independent 40 MeV Si ions. When fluence of 40 MeV Si ions is more than 6×l08/cm2, all the excess base current of the irradiated transistors by the sequential irradiation is less than one of the irradiated transistors by the independent 40 MeV Si ions. These results show that ionization damage on the transistors caused by the subsequent Co-60 gamma ray has an annealing effect on displacement damage caused by the 40 MeV Si ions. DLTS analyses show that the displacement defects especially in V2(-/0) centers caused by the 40 MeV Si ions are annealed due to the oxide charges induced by Co-60 gamma ray irradiations. Moreover, the fluence of the independent 40 MeV Si ions is the larger, the annealing effect of the displacement defects is the more obvious.

In this paper we propose an approach to distinguish between upset bursts induced by flash X-rays and pulsed neutrons, by analyzing upset-multiplicity occurrences. Test results of ISSI 65 nm SRAMs on a flash X-ray machine and a pulsed reactor are presented. We adopted binomial distributions to fit the obtained upset-multiplicity data. The pulsed-neutron results exhibit precise and consistent accordance with the binomial distributions. In contrast, the flash X-ray data sharply diverge from the binomial distributions as the dose rate exceeds the upset threshold. However, the discrepancy reduces significantly after the bit-upset proportion saturates at higher dose rates. Interestingly, the binomial distributions fit well with the flash X-ray data at all dose rates if combinations of 2 or 3 different binomial distributions are applied. To explain the observed phenomena, the underlying mechanisms of dose rate upsets and neutron-induced single event upsets are further discussed. Above all, the presented approach of analyzing upset-multiplicity occurrences of upset bursts provides a novel and straightforward means to differentiate localized and global effects, and is especially useful for dose-rate-upset analysis when the correspondence between physical and logical addresses is unavailable.
