辐照下背栅偏置对部分耗尽型绝缘层上硅器件背栅效应影响及机理分析

基于部分耗尽型绝缘层上硅（SOI）器件的能带结构,从电荷堆积机理的电场因素入手,为改善辐照条件下背栅Si/SiO₂界面的电场分布,将半导体金属氧化物（MOS）器件和平板电容模型相结合,建立了背栅偏置模型.为验证模型,利用合金烧结法将背栅引出加负偏置,对NMOS和PMOS进行辐照试验,得出:NMOS背栅接负压,可消除背栅效应对器件性能的影响,改善器件的前栅I-V特性;而PMOS背栅接负压,则会使器件的前栅I-V性能恶化.因此,在利用背栅偏置技术改善SOI/NMOS器件性能的同时,也需要考虑背栅偏置对PMOS的影响,折中选取偏置电压.该研究结果为辐照条件下部分耗尽型SOI/MOS器件背栅效应的改善提供了设计加固方案,也为宇航级集成电路设计和制造提供了理论支持.

Effects of Total-Ionizing-Dose Irradiation on Single-Event Burnout for Commercial Enhancement-Mode AlGaN/GaN High-Electron Mobility Transistors

We investigate the synergism effect of total ionizing dose(TID) on single-event burnout(SEB) for commercial enhancement-mode Al Ga N/Ga N high-electron mobility transistors. Our experimental results show that the slight degradation of devices caused by gamma rays can affect the stability of the devices during the impact of high energy particles. During heavy ion irradiation, the safe working values of drain voltage are significantly reduced for devices which have already been irradiated by ~(60)Co gamma rays before. This could be attributed to more charges trapped caused by ~(60)Co gamma rays, which make Ga N devices more vulnerable to SEB. Moreover, the electrical parameters of Ga N devices after ~(60)Co gamma and heavy-ion irradiations are presented, such as the output characteristic curve, effective threshold voltages, and leakage current of drain. These results demonstrate that the synergistic effect of TID on SEB for Ga N power devices does in fact exist.     

The modulation effect of substrate doping on multi-node charge collection and single-event transient propagation in 90-nm bulk complementary metal-oxide semiconductor technology

Variation of substrate background doping will affect the charge collection of active and passive MOSFETs in complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technologies, which are significant for charge sharing, thus affecting the propagated single event transient pulsewidths in circuits. The trends of charge collected by the drain of a positive channel metal-oxide semiconductor (PMOS) and an N metal-oxide semiconductor (NMOS) are opposite as the substrate doping increases. The PMOS source will inject carriers after strike and the amount of charge injected will increase as the substrate doping increases, whereas the source of the NMOS will mainly collect carriers and the source of the NMOS can also inject electrons when the substrate doping is light enough. Additionally, it indicates that substrate doping mainly affects the bipolar amplification component of a single-event transient current, and has little effect on the drift and diffusion. The change in substrate doping has a much greater effect on PMOS than on NMOS.     

Total ionizing dose induced single transistor latchup in 130-nm PDSOI input/output NMOSFETs

Total ionizing dose induced single transistor latchup effects for 130 nm partially depleted silicon-on-insulator(PDSOI)NMOSFETs with the bodies floating were studied in this work. The latchup phenomenon strongly correlates with the bias configuration during irradiation. It is found that the high body doping concentration can make the devices less sensitive to the single transistor latchup effect, and the onset drain voltage at which latchup occurs can degrade as the total dose level rises. The mechanism of band-to-band tunneling(BBT) has been discussed. Two-dimensional simulations were conducted to evaluate the BBT effect. It is demonstrated that BBT combined with the positive trapped charge in the buried oxide(BOX) contributes a lot to the latchup effect.

Total ionizing dose effect in an input/output device for flash memory

Input/output devices for flash memory are exposed to gamma ray irradiation. Total ionizing dose has been shown great influence on characteristic degradation of transistors with different sizes. In this paper, we observed a larger increase of off-state leakage in the short channel device than in long one. However, a larger threshold voltage shift is observed for the narrow width device than for the wide one, which is well known as the radiation induced narrow channel effect. The radiation induced charge in the shallow trench isolation oxide influences the electric field of the narrow channel device. Also, the drain bias dependence of the off-state leakage after irradiation is observed, which is called the radiation enhanced drain induced barrier lowing effect. Finally, we found that substrate bias voltage can suppress the off-state leakage, while leading to more obvious hump effect.
