SYNCHROTRON X-RAYS AND NEUTRON RADIATION
A key player in the high reliability market, the PAC-G provides European companies with a broad spectrum of neutron energies (fast neutrons with thermal neutrons) with a homogeneous and adjustable flux.
NON-DESTRUCTIVE IMAGING ANALYSIS
Unique 2D and 3D imaging techniques available at the neutron source ILL and synchrotron x-rays source ESRF help to unlock the secrets of electronic components, with phase contrast imaging and
in operando characterization.
PHYSICAL CHARACTERIZATION
THANK TO
DIFFRACTION TECNIQUES
The PAC-G gives access to a whole set of services used for the characterisation of crystals, thin layers and multilayer deposited on crystalline substrates.
What is PAC-G?
The Platform for Advanced Characterisation Grenoble (PAC-G) offers advanced characterization services dedicated to micro/nanoelectronics innovation, set up within the framework of the Technological Research Institute Nanoelec, thanks the funding for future investments (reference ANR-10-AIRT-05).
The members of Nanoelec’s Characterisation programme are the European neutron source ILL, the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility ESRF, the CEA-Leti, the Subatomic Physics and Cosmology Laboratory (CNRS-UGA) as research partners and STMicroelectronics, SOITEC and Schneider as industrial partners.

Synchrotron X-rays Topography
The characterisation of crystals or layers deposited on a crystalline substrate provides insight into their performance for electronic or other applications and help improve their quality.
The facilities available through PAC-G offers a service portfolio of Bragg diffraction X-ray imaging techniques, providing quantitative and qualitative information on defects in single crystals.
Neutron Radiation hardness testing
Neutron-induced single event effects (SEE) and radiation hardness testing facilities of PAC-G offer
a homogeneous and adjustable neutron flux.
High energy and thermal neutrons help to anticipate the results from the preparation of proton and heavy ion tests and a broad spectrum of neutron energy from fast to thermal neutrons (14 MeV, 2.5 MeV and 25 meV) is available on the same site.
