The electrical behavior of a diode, either reverse or forward biased,
under a radiation pulse, is considered. The variations of the current
produced by the diode are explained by the consideration of variable I
-V characteristics, showing the different diode behaviors according to
the working mode. This approach is then applied to explain some elect
rical properties of an irradiated transistor.
