Abstract :
The physical nature of the emission-current mechanism involved at each heterojunction when m.o.s. components are irradiated is discussed by the authors. They test the validity of this mechanism with an overall experiment, and analyse its practical consequences on the form of the ¿VG(VG) degradation curve.
