Abstract :
Proton beam characterization was performed at the Oslo Cyclotron Laboratory (OCL) in order to evaluate the beam properties and asses its usability for radiation testing of electronic devices. The characterization was performed with the aim of establishing good guidelines for reliable radiation tolerance testing at the OCL. A dosimetry measurement and calibration setup is proposed as well as a beam-to-target alignment and beam profile measurement setup. The beam characterization was performed using 30 MeV protons.
