Neutrons generated through charge-exchange 9 Be (p; n i) 9 Be reactions, with energies ranging from 0–33 MeV and an average energy of∼ 9.8 MeV were used to irradiate conventional Schottky Ga 2 O 3 rectifiers and NiO/Ga 2 O 3 pn heterojunction rectifiers to fluences of 1.1–2.2× 10 14 cm− 2. The breakdown voltage was improved after irradiation for the Schottky rectifiers but was highly degraded for their NiO/Ga 2 O 3 counterparts. This may be a result of extended defect zones within the NiO. After irradiation, the switching characteristics were degraded and irradiated samples of both types could not survive switching above 0.7 A or 400 V, whereas reference samples were robust to 1 A and 1 kV. The carrier removal rate in both types of devices was∼ 45 cm− 1. The forward currents and on-state resistances were only slightly degraded by neutron irradiation.
