Radiation Testing
The ability of electronic components or materials to survive the hostile radiation environment in space is of critical importance for satellite applications. Accurate assessment of degradation due to radiation effects prior to deployment is essential.
Isotron can provide a range of testing services to assess the resistance of components and systems to electron and proton irradiation in the critical energy range of 1 to 10 MeV. Samples are exposed to uniform and highly controlled doses in either ambient conditions or vacuum. Simultaneous measurement of electronic parameters is also possible.
