Ion Beam Induced Charge Collection (IBICC) Studies of Integrated Circuits Using a 10MeV Carbon Microbeam
Description:
As feature sizes of Integrated Circuits (ICs) continue to shrinlL the sensitivity of these devices, particularly SRAMS and DR4Ms, to natural radiation is increasing. The radiation can lead to the uncontrolled deposition of charge within an IC, which ean alter, for example, the memoty state of a bit and thereby produce what is edled a `SOW error, or Single Event Upset (SEU). The response of ICS to natural background radiation is therefore of great coneem regarding the reliability of Mure devices…
