  • Abstract
    The Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory 88-inch cyclotron has been widely used for single event phenomena (SEP) studies. The advantages and disadvantages of using ions at this facility are compared with those for other accelerator facilities in the US. One major advantage of the 88-inch cyclotron is that several ion species, with varying stopping powers, can be made available in a matter of seconds by simply adjusting the cyclotron frequency. The importance of this capability is illustrated via test results for a high density SRAM and an EEPROM device type
