Abstract

The study investigates the degradation of GLPNP bipolar transistors due to ionizing radiation, focusing on the unexpected observation of two optimum temperatures during elevated temperature irradiation. Traditional models attribute this to the competition between generation and annealing of interface traps, but the authors propose a more complex mechanism involving two pairs of competing reactions. The findings have significant implications for understanding the reliability of semiconductor devices in space environments and the accuracy of accelerated testing methods.
