Abstract
The radiation response of FOXFETs has been studied for proton, gamma a nd neutron exposures. The punch-through behaviour, which represents th e normal FET operating conditions in Si microstrip detectors, has been found to be much less sensitive to radiation damage than threshold vo ltage. The device performance has been elucidated by means of two-dime nsional simulations. The main radiation effects have been also taken i nto account in the numerical analysis and separately examined.
