STUDY OF EFFECT OF HIGH-INTENSITY PULSED NUCLEAR RADIATION ON ELECTRONIC PARTS AND MATERIALS (SCORRE).

Abstract

This report contains the results of a series of experiments conducted on capacitors of the tantalum oxide, ceramic, mica, and glass dielectric types. The experiments were conducted to provide design information that would characterize the radiation response of the capacitor in terms of the dielectric material and device construction. Included also are the results of a study conducted for Picatinny Arsenal of the behavior of a critical timer circuit in which failure modes and thresholds were determined analytically and confirmed experimentally. The studies utilized pulse reactor radiation and a highenergy electron beam. (Author)
