Radiation-Induced Substrate Photo-Current Compensation Apparatus.

Abstract

A radiation-induced substrate photo-current compensation apparatus for a silicon FET on a sapphire substrate having an additional pair of electrodes on the substrate in a precise geometrical relationship to the source and drain electrodes to provide a compensating substrate current which flows into the source and drain electrodes, eliminating the undesirable effects of radiation on the semiconductor. Patent applications. (rh)
