Abstract :
We investigate the energy response of RADFET to high energy photons, electrons, protons and neutrons with FLUKA Monte Carlo simulation code. We combine Monte Carlo and device simulations to describe radiation effects in the RADFET gate oxide due to photon and proton exposure. Comparisons with photon irradiation measurements show reasonable agreement.
