Total-Ionizing-Dose Effects at Ultrahigh Doses in AlGaN/GaN HEMTs
Total-ionizing-dose (TID) effects in AlGaN/GaN high-electron-mobility transistors (HEMTs) are evaluated by dc and low-frequency noise measurements. Devices with and without passivation layers are irradiated with 10-keV X-rays up to 100 Mrad(SiO2) under different bias conditions. Irradiated devices show significant electrical shifts in threshold voltage
