Effect of ionizing radiation on quasi-floating gate transistors

Low power and low voltage are key in modern design. The quasi-floating gate (QFG) has proven to be an adequate choice in numerous applications. However, so far, its use has not spread in high-radiation environments because of the lack of studies on the performance of this technique under radiation....
