Heavy Ion-Induced Single Particle Displacement Damage in Silicon

Displacement damage from individual heavy ions results in discrete, measurable electrical degradation in <sup>252</sup>Cf-irradiated silicon diodes. This work presents measurements of discrete increases in diode reverse current, or current steps, associated with damage from fission fragm...
