Semiconductors@Birck VIP Course
Teaching Materials | 26 Jun 2024 | Contributor(s): Zhihong Chen, Joerg Appenzeller, Peter Bermel, Saeed Mohammadi, Pramey Upadhyaya, Mary Elizabeth Vaughan, Darbin Oh
The Semiconductors@Birck VIP course focuses on semiconductors and experimentation in the cleanroom. It is project based, allowing students to design, fabricate, and test semiconductor devices while working hand-on with cleanroom equipment. The following material describes the current...
MATLAB Microelectronic Coding Problem - Total Ionizing Dose Problem Set
Teaching Materials | 31 Aug 2024 | Contributor(s): Jill Anne Folkerts, Aileen Ryan, Adrian Nat Gentry, Amanda Johnston, Tamara J. Moore, Allen Garner, Peter Bermel
Students research shielding density provided by a variety of materials to protect CubeSats. The shields must protect the satellite from the harsh environment yet remain small and light.For this problem students will need to write a main and sub-function.The sub-function must be able...
MATLAB Microelectronic Coding Problem - Sun Radiation Intensity
Given constants and a radiation intensity, students write a script that will calculate the distance from the earth and define an orbital.
MATLAB Microelectronic Coding Problem - Stopping Power
Teaching Materials | 31 Aug 2024 | Contributor(s): Aileen Ryan, Adrian Nat Gentry, Amanda Johnston, Tamara J. Moore, Allen Garner, Peter Bermel
Students explore passive shielding to protect astronauts and electronics on Mars.Students will create a script that:Imports data and assigns meaningful variables to columnsCreates a vector of stopping percentages between 80% and 99%Uses provided equations to calculate the...
MATLAB Microelectronic Coding Problem - Radiation Dose based on Altitude of Mission
Using the data file RadDose_DataSet.csv, students write a script that:Creates a figure for altitude versus mean radiation doseContains a 2x2 subplot grid that follows these expectations: Linear X, Linear...
MATLAB Microelectronic Coding Problem - Mission Radiation Dose Predictor
In this problem, students will be creating a user defined function that searches through historical mission data, RadDose_DataSet.csv, to find the similar missions within a range.Write a script that does the following:Imports and assigns the columns to unique variablesManually...
MATLAB Microelectronic Coding Problem - Microchip Selection
Students are given a list of microchips and their properties of Total Ionizing Dose (TID) and Linear Energy Transfer (LET). The task is to create a script that will take user input of the minimum TID the microchip must survive and the minimum LET threshold the microchip must have and...
MATLAB Microelectronic Coding Problem - Aluminum Shielding
Problem 1: Students use data to write a program that calculates the aluminum thickness from shielding densities.Problem 2: Students use the UDF from Problem 1 to create plots of TID against aluminum thickness in four different scales.
