Why Choose Us

Understanding Space Radiation Effects

Spacecraft and satellites face intense radiation from galactic cosmic rays, solar particle events, and Earth’s Van Allen belts. This radiation can cause three primary types of damage to electronics and materials:

Total Ionizing Dose (TID)

Gradual degradation that shifts device parameters and can lead to failure over time.

Single Event Effects (SEE)

A single high-energy particle can flip bits (SEU), trigger destructive latchup (SEL), or burn out power devices (SEB/SEGR).

Displacement Damage (DDD)

Atomic displacements that reduce solar cell efficiency and degrade optoelectronics.

Proper testing with realistic proton and heavy-ion beams is essential to ensure mission reliability and longevity in orbit.

Facilities & Capabilities

State-of-the-art compact proton accelerator and cleanroom labs for precise, high-fluence radiation simulation.
