We evaluate the total ionizing dose (TID) responses of InGaAs nMOS FinFETs with different gate lengths irradiated with 10-keV X-rays under different gate biases. The largest degradation after irradiation occurs at $V_{\mathrm {G}} = -1$ V. Radiation-induced trapped positive charge dominates the TID response of InGaAs FinFET transistors, consistent with previous results for InGaAs multifin capacitors. Shorter gate-length devices show larger radiation-induced charge trapping than longer gate-length devices, most likely due to the electrostatic effects of trapped charge in the surrounding SiO2 isolation and SiO2/Si3N4 spacer oxides. The 1/$f$ noise measurements indicate a high trap density and a nonuniform defect-energy distribution, consistent with a strong variation of effective border-trap density with surface potential.
