Radiation Hardened Electronics Market Drivers and Opportunities

Increasing Demand from Nuclear Power Plants to Favor Market

Nuclear power plants are involved in generating electricity through the process of nuclear fission. In this process, a significant amount of power is produced, which generates a substantial amount of radiation. This radiation is harmful to humans and can damage electronic equipment, increasing the demand for radiation hardened feedback sensors. Radiation hardened feedback sensors are strategically placed throughout the plant to monitor temperature variations in critical areas, such as the coolant systems, reactor core, and various components. These sensors provide continuous feedback to the control systems, enabling plant operators to take necessary actions for maintaining the desired temperature range and make informed decisions to improve the system’s performance. Several companies are making significant investments in developing power plants. For instance, according to the US Department of Energy (DOE) data published in January 2024, the DOE invested ~US$ 12 billion in Plant Vogtle to provide more than 1,100 megawatts of clean power to the grid once in operation.

Emerging Medical Application.

Radiation hardened feedback sensors play a crucial role in ensuring the safety, accuracy, and reliability of medical equipment used in the healthcare industry. These sensors are integrated into a variety of medical equipment, including gamma rays, X-rays, and electron beams, by making them withstand high levels of radiation. Radiation hardened feedback sensors are primarily integrated into radiation therapy equipment to support doctors in treating cancer patients. Radiation therapy, also known as radiotherapy, is the most common treatment mode for cancer patients, where high-energy radiation beams are used to target and destroy cancerous cells, which require radiation hardened feedback sensors to monitor various parameters, including dose delivery, beam density, and beam positioning. Healthcare professionals use radiation hardened feedback sensors to ensure the delivery of accurate and precise treatment by minimizing damage to healthy tissues. For instance, in April 2022, Maxon Group introduced ENX GAMA encoders designed for use in the vicinity of medical linear accelerators on equipment such as multi-leaf collimators. ENX GAMA encoders are radiation-resistant encoders integrated with DC motors that are highly suitable for radiotherapy devices.
