Proton Degradation of Light-Emitting Diodes

The severe degradation of optocouplers in space has been shown to be mainly due to proton displacement damage in the light-emitting diodes that are used within the optocouplers.

Observations on the Presumed LET Dependence of SEGR

Single-event gate rupture (SEGR)in vertical power MOSFETs is induced by charge deposited in the epitaxial region (below the gate oxide) in concert with the weakening of the oxide, both are a result of the ion passage.
