Description

FGDOS is a Floating Gate based dosimeter on-chip designed, developed and commercialized by iC-Malaga. Its high linearity and sensitivity response makes it a good candidate for space, medical and high-energy physics applications. A brief introduction on the FGDOS features and configurations will be done in order to better understand the suitability as a dosimeter for space applications. In this presentation the FGDOS radiation test results carried out in collaboration with CERN in several facilities will be presented. Mainly four different tests are exposed to foresee the FGDOS responseness under different sources and conditions (protons, neutrons, 60Co and mixed-field). Limitations and second-degree effects are discussed. In addition, an overview of the 4M Lunar flyby Mission organized by Luxpsace where two FGDOS were embedded is presented. The 4M Mission launched, as a payload attached to the final stage of a Chinese Long March 3C rocket, two FGDOS in October 23th 2014.

Summary

FGDOS is a Floating Gate based dosimeter on-chip designed, developed and commercialized by iC-Malaga. Its high linearity and sensitivity response makes it a good candidate for space, medical and high-energy physics applications.
