Radiation Measurement Technologies for Evaluating Soft Errors

Two radiation measurement technologies for estimating and lowering the occurrence rate of “soft errors” are introduced. Radiation such as fast neutrons (generated by cosmic rays) and α-rays (generated by the impurities in materials composing LSIs) cause incorrect operations—known as soft errors—in computer systems. Since soft errors undermine the reliability of mission-critical products such as...

Measurement of Radiation

Plasma is one of the most researched fields. Its use as a sterilizer is being rapidly explored. Thus, in this process it has become necessary to understand the effect of UV radiation produced due to plasma. The goal for our project is to measure the levels of ultraviolet radiation plasma creates and then compare the result with the safety standards of UV radiation individuals can be exposed to....

Measurement of Radiation

The various fluxes of radiation to and from the Earth’s surface are among the most important variables in the heat economy of the Earth as a whole and at any individual place at the Earth’s surface or in the atmosphere. Radiation measurements are used for the following purposes: (a) To study the transformation of energy within the Earth-atmosphere system and its variation in time and space; (b)...
