Abstract
The key effects of ionizing radiation on silicon dioxide are described and computed. Inclusion of bimolecular electron–hole recombination is shown to produce a saturation of fixed charge at high total dose and to a reduction in interface trap density at high dose-rates. These results can explain the enhanced low dose rate sensitivity (ELDRS) phenomenon. These results also predict a new dose-rate dependence at very high dose rates.
