“…Irradiations are usually limited to tilt angles of 60-70 • , because otherwise there is too much matter between the beam and the sensitive area. But it can be shown that half of the CR flux hits the device at angles larger than 60 • [29]. Here the device might be very sensitive to multiple bit upsets (MBU) along the ion track, which can reduce or even negate the effectiveness of error correction codes.…”

“…Previous work about SEU testing shows that irradiation at tilted incidence can mimic a higher LET value when the initial LET at normal incidence is not enough or proper [7][8][9][10]. This practice is based on an assumption that the shape of sensitive volume for upset events is a thin rectangular parallelepiped [11].…”

“…Attention is often given to the influence of geometric factors on SEE rates. While several recent studies have considered the incident angle of the beam in radiation hardness testing [4][5][6][7], many apparently do not [8,9] and this is a crucial factor when analyzing upsets as a function of energy delivered. It is recognized that some radiation hardness testing has been focused on the influence of beam energy, linear energy transfer (LET), and other nongeometry factors or has had geometry factors as a secondary area of study.…”

Chord length distributions for rectangular parallelepipeds of various relative dimensions were studied in relation to radiation hardness testing. For each geometry, a differential chord length distribution was generated using a Monte Carlo method to simulate exposure to an isotropic radiation source. The frequency and dose distributions of chord length crossings for each geometry, as well as the means of these distributions, are presented. In every case, the dose mean chord length was greater than the frequency mean chord length with a 34.5% increase found for the least extreme case of a cube. This large increase of the dose mean chord length relative to the frequency mean chord length demonstrates the need to consider rare, long-chord-length crossings in radiation hardness testing of electronic components.
