Description

Content

This course will introduce basic radiation matter interactions that are underlying the radiation effects in electronics. Emphasis will be on ion-matter interactions, but also the photon-matter interactions will be discussed. The above-mentioned subjects will be linked with the radiation hardness assurance (RHA) testing of electronics. Some basic methods involved in RHA will be introduced using the RADEF facility as the showcase. The course contains a laboratory work that will take place in the RADEF facility.

Completion methods

Lectures and laboratory work

Learning outcomes

After this course, the student understands the basic concepts concerning radiation-matter interactions and can relate them with the radiation hardness assurance testing of electronic components. Also student will have knowledge on the principles of RHA testing.
