Sandia National Laboratories FY21 Progress Report

Aguirre, Brandon A.

The Energetic Neutrons campaign led by Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) had a successful year testing electronic devices and printed circuit boards (PCBs) under 14 MeV neutron irradiation at OMEGA. During FY21 Sandia’s Neutron Effects Diagnostics (NEDs) and data acquisition systems were upgraded to test novel commercial off-the-shelf and Sandia-fabricated electronic components that support SNL’s National Security mission. The upgrades to the Sandia platform consisted of new cable chains, sample mount fixtures and a new fiber optics platform for testing optoelectronic devices.
