A single particle striking a memory chip can flip a stored bit, potentially disrupting spacecraft functions. Indiana University and imec are partnering to investigate how electronic and photonic components respond to radiation, aiming to help developers identify vulnerabilities and design more radiation-tolerant hardware for space missions.

Why now: Interest in space-hardened electronics is growing as radiation effects on spacecraft systems draw renewed research attention
