INVESTIGATION OF TRANSIENT RADIATION DAMAGE IN SEMICONDUCTOR MATERIALS.

Abstract

Existing equipment was modified and a reliable single pulse light source developed which can be used in the high radiation field of the LINAC target room. One run was made at the LINAC site during which a satisfactory method of obtaining a single electron pulse was found. From the run at the LINAC, it was found that significant permanent damage occurs in one electron burst; however, no transient radiation damage at 10 milliseconds after the electron pulse was observed.
