The RADECS Conference is the annual European scientific and industrial forum on the effects of radiation effects on electronic and photonic materials, devices, circuits, sensors and systems where scientists and engineers exchange on the latest progress and result about:

• Radiation Environments
• Radiation effects modeling, from materials to device, circuit and system level
• Test facilities & dosimetry
• Radiation hardness assurance
• Hardening and mitigation solutions
• Applications & case studies

RADECS 2019 will include a full-day Short Course named as “Prepare for the next decade”

This short course is intended for beginners as well as experts in the field. Background information and fundamental concepts will be presented before focusing on various effects and technologies that are and will be in the next decade, at play. It will cover displacement damage and ionizing dose for silicon devices and emerging technologies. The issue of low energy protons for single event effects will be also addressed for space and high altitude environments. In addition, a talk on the complex challenge of mitigation techniques in FPGAs will be given. Finally, radiation hardness assurance strategies for aerospace systems will be presented.
