Abstract:In this paper, Low Earth Orbit radiation and temperature conditions are mimicked to investigate the suitability of flexible Indium-Gallium-Zinc-Oxide transistors for lightweight space-wearables. Such wearable devices could be incorporated into spacesuits as unobtrusive sensors such as radiation detectors or physiological monitors. Due to the harsh environment to which these space-wearables would be exposed, they have to be able to withstand high radiation doses and low temperatures. For this reason, the impact… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
