Investigate the Equivalence of Neutrons and Protons in Single Event Effects Testing: A Geant4 Study

Neutron radiation on advanced integrated circuits (ICs) is becoming important for their reliable operation. However, a neutron test on ICs is expensive and time-consuming. In this work, we employ Monte Carlo simulation to examine if a proton test can replace or even accelerate the neutron test, and...
