Effects of Gamma Ray Radiation on the Performance of Microelectromechanical Resonators
Source abstract
Abstract
This illustration portrays the effect of Co-60 gamma ray radiation on piezoelectric microelectromechanical resonators. Compton scattering initially occurs, resulting in electron ionization and the scattering of a lower-energy X-ray photon. The resultant electrons and photons interact within the material, instigating a cascade that produces hundreds to thousands of electron-hole pairs. Further details can be found in the article number 2201837 by David D. Lynes, Hengky Chandrahalim and co-workers.
