Evaluating the Effect of Alpha and Beta Radiation on Mobile Phone Vibrations

Abstract

Mobile phones have become ubiquitous in modern society, necessitating an understanding of their resilience to various environmental factors. One underexplored area is the potential impact of ionizing radiation exposure on mobile phone functionality. Specifically, the influence of alpha and beta radiation on mechanical vibrations in mobile phones requires further investigation. Vibrations are integral for user notifications and haptic feedback, thus maintaining their integrity is essential for optimal user experience. This research aims to systematically assess potential alterations in vibration amplitude, frequency, and consistency when mobile phones are subjected to alpha and beta radiation. As ionizing particles, they can potentially disrupt electronic circuits and components. Through controlled experiments, this study will elucidate any correlations between ionizing radiation and the operational integrity of vibration mechanisms in mobile devices. The findings may provide insights into mobile phone durability in environments with elevated alpha and beta radiation levels, with implications for consumer safety and device design
