1.1 Low energy components in the photon energy spectrum of Co-60 irradiators lead to absorbed dose enhancement effects in the radiation-hardness testing of silicon electronic devices. These low energy components may lead to errors in determining the absorbed dose in a specific device under test. This method covers procedures for the use of a specialized ionization chamber to determine a figure of merit for the relative importance of such effects. It also gives the design and instructions for assembling this chamber.
1.2 This method is applicable to measurements in Co-60 radiation fields where the range of exposure rates is 7 10 6 to 3 102 C kg 1 s1 (approximately 100 R/h to 100 R/s). For guidance in applying this method to radiation fields where the exposure rate is >100 R/s, see . Note 1See Terminology E 170 for definition of exposure and its units.
1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
