Compound Semiconductor Devices for Space Applications
Abstract
Application of semiconductor devices in high reliability space systems requires a thorough understanding of the reliability and failure mechanisms associated with the selected devices. This paper provides a description of the reliability and qualification issues related to the application of compound semiconductor devices in critical space systems. A discussion of common failure mechanisms, radiation effects and other reliability concerns is provided along with a discussion of methods for technology qualification for high reliability space applications.
