ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are semiconductor devices and circuits which are highly resistant to the effects of radiation. A thin conductive layer, which is biased at substrate potential, and a thin oxide are provided under the usual field oxide of the devices. The conductive layer shields the semiconductor substrate from the effects of charge generation in the field oxide due to radiation absorption.
