dc.description.abstractRadiation dosimetry is crucial in many fields where the exposure to ionizing radiation must be precisely controlled to avoid health and environmental safety issues. Among solid state detectors, we recently demonstrated that Radiation sensitive OXide Field Effect Transistors (ROXFETs) are excellent candidates for personal dosimetry thanks to their fast response and high sensitivity to x rays. These transistors use indium-gallium-zinc oxide as a semiconductor, combined with a dielectric based on high-permittivity and high-atomic number materials. Here, we present a study on the ROXFET gate dielectric fabricated by atomic layer deposition, where we compare single- and multi-layer structures to determine the best-performing configuration. All the devices show stable operational parameters and high reproducibility among different detectors. We identified an optimized bi-layer dielectric structure made of tantalum oxide and aluminum oxide, which demonstrated a sensitivity of (63 ± 2) V/Gy, an order of magnitude larger than previously reported values. To explain our findings, we propose a model identifying the relevant charge accumulation and recombination processes leading to the large observed transistor threshold voltage shift under ionizing radiation, i.e., of the parameter that directly defines the sensitivity of the device.en
