  • Abstract
    Previous work at this centre has shown enhanced sensitivity for PMOS dosimeters using a design approach. This is being extended presently to longer chains of devices. Prior to this extension, thermal effects have been investigated and a noise analysis has been undertaken. The need for a temperature compensation technique becomes imperative if the signal/noise ratio is to be improved
