  • Abstract
    A historical review of radiation effects on III-V semiconductor devices is presented. The discussion ranges from examining early material and device studies to present-day understanding of III-V radiation effects. The purpose of this paper is to provide present researchers with a summary of discoveries and lessons learned from previous failures and successes.
