Description
Summary:A radiation effects facility (RADEF) has been installed in the Accelerator Laboratory of the Department of Physics, University of Jyväskylä (JYFL). The facility includes a special beam line dedicated to irradiation studies of semiconductor components and devices. It consists of a vacuum chamber including component movement apparatus and the necessary diagnostic equipment required for beam quality and intensity analysis. Construction of the station began in the summer of 1996, and in August 1997 the suitability of the station for space applications was evaluated. In this paper we introduce the accelerator laboratory along with the test station and its properties. We also describe the JYFL test site and the beams, which we use for the tests. In addition, we present the evaluation data and compare it to results measured elsewhere.
