Scientists Speed up Tests to Protect Satellite Chips From Radiation

Scientists speed up tests to protect satellite chips from radiation

Scientists at PNNL are accelerating the development of "radiation-hardened" (rad-hard) materials using Super Intelligence and automation.

Scientists speed up development of radiation-resistant microchips for satellites, nuclear reactors

Today's sophisticated microchips are a wonder, designed by engineers squeezing ever more detail onto ever-smaller chips, then built in ultraclean billion-dollar fabrication facilities. Just one speck of dust or an errant signal from a device like a cell phone can spell ruin.

AI could help protect satellite chips from damaging space radiation

Scientists are using teams of artificial intelligence programs to examine radiation damage in microchips much faster. The approach could help engineers develop electronics that keep working aboard satellites and in other harsh environments, including nuclear facilities. At Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, researchers brought together measurements from chips exposed to energetic particles. Their AI system analyzed […]

Scientists Are Speeding Up the Development of “Rad-Hard” Materials for Satellites, Nuclear Reactors

Scientists are using agentic agents to speed up the process of toughening materials for their future in space or in nuclear reactors.
