transient radiation effects on electronics (EMI) (TREE)

Transient Radiation Effects on Electronics (TREE) addresses the impact of nuclear electromagnetic pulses(NEMP) on semiconductor devices and materials.

Radiation from the high-energy discharges of nuclear explosions can permanently impair and damage semiconductor devices, thereby disabling communications network computers, manufacturing equipment, and power supplies. Therefore, Transient Radiation Effects on Electronics is also concerned with improving materials and technologies against electromagnetic discharges.
