2006 NSREC RADIATION EFFECTS AWARD
Received by
DENNIS BROWN

The 2006 Radiation Effects Award was presented to Dennis Brown from the National Reconnaissance Office. Dennis has made many important contributions to the radiation effects community, and has done important work in areas such as time and energy dependence of radiation effects, radiation dose enhancement, kinetics of radiation induced interface state generation, annealing of radiation induced trapped charge, and the mechanisms of low dose rate effects in bipolar semiconductor devices. He has been active in the IEEE Nuclear and Space Radiation Effects Conference (NSREC), and has served the NSREC as an author, reviewer, session chair, short course presenter, Short Course Chairman, Technical Program Chairman, General Chairman, member of the Radiation Effects Steering Group, and most recently as AdCom representative for the NPSS Radiation Effects Committee from 2002-2005.
His citation reads “For contributions to the dissemination and advancement of radiation effects research and by his leadership in all aspects of the IEEE Nuclear and Space Radiation Effects Conference and the Radiation Effects Steering Group.”
