The system employs an iterative compensation calibration method, utilizing data from <inline-formula> <tex-math>$- 40~^{circ }$ </tex-math></inline-formula>C to <inline-formula> <tex-math>$80~^{circ }$ </tex-math></inline-formula>C, to mitigate temperature drift. This calibration improves the TDC root mean square (rms) resolution from 34.88 to 23.55 ps. Testing shows that temperature-dependent errors in the uncalibrated system reach a maximum of <inline-formula> <tex-math>$0.53~^{circ }$ </tex-math></inline-formula>C (average <inline-formula> <tex-math>$0.243~^{circ }$ </tex-math></inline-formula>C), primarily due to oscillator drift and variations in the delay chain. After calibration, high accuracy is maintained between <inline-formula> <tex-math>$20~^{circ }$ </tex-math></inline-formula>C and <inline-formula> <tex-math>$50~^{circ }$ </tex-math></inline-formula>C, with errors consistently below <inline-formula> <tex-math>$0.01~^{circ }$ </tex-math></inline-formula>C. Performance degrades beyond <inline-formula> <tex-math>$50~^{circ }$ </tex-math></inline-formula>C due to increased phase noise, yet the maximum error at <inline-formula> <tex-math>$70~^{circ }$ </tex-math></inline-formula>C is only <inline-formula> <tex-math>$0.06~^{circ }$ </tex-math></inline-formula>C. The average error across the <inline-formula> <tex-math>$20~^{circ }$ </tex-math></inline-formula>C–<inline-formula> <tex-math>$70~^{circ }$ </tex-math></inline-formula>C range is significantly reduced to <inline-formula> <tex-math>$0.019~^{circ }$ </tex-math></inline-formula>C. The self-calibrating scheme eliminates external sensors, enabling compact and low-cost temperature sensing suitable for various harsh embedded environments.","PeriodicalId":13406,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science","volume":"72 10","pages":"3442-3450"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145339574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Utilizing Ta ion irradiation, the leakage degradation at the gate bias <inline-formula> <tex-math>$V_{mathrm {gs}}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> range of 0 to −5 V was studied. The most severe degradation was observed at approximately <inline-formula> <tex-math>$V_{mathrm {gs}}=-3$ </tex-math></inline-formula> V. Electrical measurements revealed a 20% positive shift in threshold voltage (at <inline-formula> <tex-math>$V_{mathrm {gs}}=-3$ </tex-math></inline-formula> V), a two times increase in <sc>on</small>-resistance, a reduction in Schottky barrier height, and a significant shift in the ideality factor after heavy ion exposure. Technology computer-aided design (TCAD) simulations indicated that increasing the magnitude of negative gate bias enhanced the internal electric field strength, while the lattice temperature exhibited a decreasing trend. The analysis suggests that under heavy ion irradiation, leakage current at different gate biases is primarily attributed to micro-burn channels formed via thermal excitation and carrier tunneling, with their likelihood governed by the internal electric field and lattice temperature. Under the intermediate gate bias, the electric field strength and lattice temperature inside the device were both higher, resulting in more micro-burned channels and a significantly higher leakage rate than other bias conditions. These findings can provide an important theoretical basis for the single event leakage degradation characteristics during the potential application of p-GaN HEMT devices in radiation environment.","PeriodicalId":13406,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science","volume":"72 9","pages":"3023-3032"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145090272","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
