The purpose of this work is to research the effect of preliminary neutron irradiation on the reliability of LEDs during long-term operation. The objects of the research were lightemitting diodes based upon AlGaAs heterostructures. Long-term operating conditions were simulated by accelerated step-by-step tests. Changes in watt-ampere characteristic during the step-bystep tests can be represented as a change in the corresponding threshold currents with increasing of test steps. It is proved that the use of an optimal level of preliminary fast neutrons irradiation of LEDs makes it possible to increase their reliability.","PeriodicalId":223580,"journal":{"name":"2017 17th European Conference on Radiation and Its Effects on Components and Systems (RADECS)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127518327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a result, there are a number of such laser facilities; for example, four of them were compared in 2012 [1], but a relatively new facility at the facility at the University of Saskatchewan offers a unique galvo-mirror, laser-spot scanning capability in addition to the usual micrometer-based DUT motion stage [2]. Operating in a fashion similar to LASIX eye surgery, fast pin-point redirection of the laser beam makes tractable (seconds, not hours or days) comprehensive scanning of a millimeter size field-of-view. Combined with auto-stepping the field-of-view, this new spot scanning capability opens up the possibility of comprehensively covering a large die and finding all SEE sites, including the rare, but important, ones such as SEFIs.","PeriodicalId":223580,"journal":{"name":"2017 17th European Conference on Radiation and Its Effects on Components and Systems (RADECS)","volume":"79 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129149842","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
