Testing of Transient Radiation Noise Subtraction Using a Commercially Available 3-Color Visible Detector

Abstract

Description of testing of commercial Foveon 3-color device for total dose radiation hardness as well as the technology's suitability for use of Self-Referential Transient Suppression (SRTS) radiation mitigation techniques. The detector was shown to be hard to 100KRads total ionizing dose. The results of tests as a radiation mitigation device showed excellent agreement with predictions and indicate that modification of the structure to optimize mitigation parameters will lead to a device that can perform in high radiation flux and fluence environments.
