Popis: International audience; This paper is dedicated to the investigation of single-event effects (SEEs) in different types of silicon Schottky diodes using heavy ions and laser pulses. The objectives are both to progress in heavy ions and laser correlations using simple devices and to further understand the impact of optical and electrical parameters on photogeneration in Schottky diodes to contribute to the use of pulsed lasers for single-event sensitivity studies. Heavy ion test results on planar and trenched commercial Schottky diodes are presented. Based on these results, pulsed laser tests and transient measurements were performed on the sensitive devices. Destructive single events were evidenced with both techniques. Significant parameters of the laser tests, such as backside aperture of the device, electrical and optical configuration are discussed. These investigations show the potential of laser testing for Schottky diode SEE sensitivity study.
