Abstract:
The paper describes dose response and signal fading of Al-gate p-channel (metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors) MOSFETs in the range of gamma radiation doses used in radiation therapy. MOSFETs with thicknesses of the gate oxide layer of 1 μm and 400 nm were used. The response was characterized by the threshold voltage shift and was studied as a function of the absorbed dose and time after irradiation. The dosimeters with the 1-μm-thick oxide layer can be effectively used for measuring doses in the 0.1-5 Gy range. The dosimeters with 400-nm-thick oxide layer are suitable for measuring doses above 5 Gy. Both types of the dosimeters retain dosimetric information for long periods of time.

Characteristics of MOSFET
Various vital parameters influence their functionality, which is crucial for theory and electronics applications. First, channel dimensions, precisely length, and width, are pivotal. The size of these channels affects the transistor's ability to carry current and switching speeds; shorter channels typically enable quicker...

MOSFET: Enhancement Mode
In their basic form, enhancement-mode MOSFETs are typically non-conductive when the gate-source voltage (Vgs) is zero. This default 'off' state means no current...

Characteristics of JFET
The core of a JFET's operation is controlling drain current by modulating the gate-source voltage. When the drain and gate voltage are set to zero, the JFET exhibits no net current flow, representing a state of equilibrium. The drain current increases linearly as the...
