Effects of stress conditions on the generation of negative bias temperature instability-associated interface traps 下载免费PDF全文
The exponent n of the generation of an interface trap(Nit),which contributes to the power-law negative bias temperature instability(NBTI)degradation,and the exponent’s time evolution are investigated by simulations with varying the stress voltage Vgand temperature T.It is found that the exponent n in the diffusion-limited phase of the degradation process is irrelevant to both Vgand T.The time evolution of the exponent n is affected by the stress conditions,which is reflected in the shift of the onset of the diffusion-limited phase.According to the diffusion profiles,the generation of the atomic hydrogen species,which is equal to the buildup of Nit,is strongly correlated with the stress conditions,whereas the diffusion of the hydrogen species shows Vg-unaffected but T-affected relations through the normalized results. 相似文献

Study on the drain bias effect on negative bias temperature instability degradation of an ultra-short p-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor 下载免费PDF全文
This paper studies the effect of drain bias on
ultra-short p-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect
transistor (PMOSFET) degradation during negative bias temperature
(NBT) stress. When a relatively large gate voltage is applied, the
degradation magnitude is much more than the drain voltage which is
the same as the gate voltage supplied, and the time exponent gets
larger than that of the NBT instability (NBTI). With decreasing
drain voltage, the degradation magnitude and the time exponent all
get smaller. At some values of the drain voltage, the degradation
magnitude is even smaller than that of NBTI, and when the drain
voltage gets small enough, the exhibition of degradation becomes
very similar to the NBTI degradation. When a relatively large drain
voltage is applied, with decreasing gate voltage, the
degradation magnitude gets smaller. However, the time exponent
becomes larger. With the help of electric field simulation, this
paper concludes that the degradation magnitude is determined by the
vertical electric field of the oxide, the amount of hot holes
generated by the strong channel lateral electric field at the
gate/drain overlap region, and the time exponent is mainly
controlled by localized damage caused by the lateral electric
field of the oxide in the gate/drain overlap region where hot carriers
are produced. 相似文献

Study on the degradation of NMOSFETs with ultra-thin gate oxide under channel hot electron stress at high temperature 下载免费PDF全文
This paper studies the degradation of device parameters
and that of stress induced leakage current (SILC) of thin tunnel
gate oxide under channel hot electron (CHE) stress at high
temperature by using n-channel metal oxide semiconductor field
effect transistors (NMOSFETs) with 1.4-nm gate oxides. The
degradation of device parameters under CHE stress exhibits
saturating time dependence at high temperature. The emphasis of this
paper is on SILC of an ultra-thin-gate-oxide under CHE stress at high
temperature. Based on the experimental results, it is found that
there is a linear correlation between SILC degradation and Vh
degradation in NMOSFETs during CHE stress. A model of
the combined effect of oxide trapped negative charges and interface
traps is developed to explain the origin of SILC during CHE stress. 相似文献

This paper studies negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) under alternant and alternating current (AC) stress.Under alternant stress,the degradation smaller than that of single negative stress is obtained.The smaller degradation is resulted from the recovery of positive stress.There are two reasons for the recovery.One is the passivation of H dangling bonds,and another is the detrapping of charges trapped in the oxide.Under different frequencies of AC stress,the parameters all show regular degradation,and also smaller than that of the direct current stress.The higher the frequency is,the smaller the degradation becomes.As the negative stress time is too small under higher frequency,the deeper defects are hard to be filled in.Therefore,the detrapping of oxide charges is easy to occur under positive bias and the degradation is smaller with higher frequency. 相似文献

Flat-roof phenomenon of dynamic equilibrium phase in the negative bias temperature instability effect on a power MOSFET 下载免费PDF全文
The effect of the static negative bias temperature(NBT) stress on a p-channel power metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor(MOSFET) is investigated by experiment and simulation. The time evolution of the negative bias temperature instability(NBTI) degradation has the trend predicted by the reaction–diffusion(R–D) model but with an exaggerated time scale. The phenomena of the flat-roof section are observed under various stress conditions, which can be considered as the dynamic equilibrium phase in the R–D process. Based on the simulated results, the variation of the flat-roof section with the stress condition can be explained. 相似文献

Degradation mechanism of enhancement-mode AlGaN/GaN HEMTs using fluorine ion implantation under the on-state gate overdrive stress 下载免费PDF全文
The degradation mechanism of enhancement-mode Al Ga N/Ga N high electron mobility transistors(HEMTs)fabricated by fluorine plasma ion implantation technology is one major concern of HEMT’s reliability.It is observed that the threshold voltage shows a significant negative shift during the typical long-term on-state gate overdrive stress.The degradation does not originate from the presence of as-grown traps in the Al Ga N barrier layer or the generated traps during fluorine ion implantation process.By comparing the relationships between the shift of threshold voltage and the cumulative injected electrons under different stress conditions,a good agreement is observed.It provides direct experimental evidence to support the impact ionization physical model,in which the degradation of E-mode HEMTs under gate overdrive stress can be explained by the ionization of fluorine ions in the Al Ga N barrier layer by electrons injected from 2DEG channel.Furthermore,our results show that there are few new traps generated in the Al Ga N barrier layer during the gate overdrive stress,and the ionized fluorine ions cannot recapture the electrons. 相似文献

The NBTI degradation phenomenon and the role of hydrogen during NBT stress
are presented in this paper. It is found that PBT stress can recover a
fraction of Vth shift induced by NBTI. However, this recovery is
unstable. The original degradation reappears soon after reapplication of the NBT
stress condition. Hydrogen-related species play a key role during a device's NBT
degradation. Experimental results show that the diffusion species are
neutral, they repassivate Si dangling bond which is independent of the gate
voltage polarity. In addition to the diffusion towards gate oxide, hydrogen
diffusion to Si-substrate must be taken into account for it also has
important influence on device degradation during NBT stress. 相似文献

Effect of substrate bias on negative bias temperature instability of ultra-deep sub-micro p-channel metal--oxide--semiconductor field-effect transistors 下载免费PDF全文
The effect of substrate bias on the degradation during applying a
negative bias temperature (NBT) stress is studied in this paper.
With a smaller gate voltage stress applied, the degradation of
negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) is enhanced, and there
comes forth an inflexion point. The degradation pace turns larger
when the substrate bias is higher than the inflexion point. The
substrate hot holes can be injected into oxide and generate
additional oxide traps, inducing an inflexion phenomenon. When a
constant substrate bias stress is applied, as the gate voltage
stress increases, an inflexion comes into being also. The higher
gate voltage causes the electrons to tunnel into the substrate from
the poly, thereby generating the electron--hole pairs by impact
ionization. The holes generated by impact ionization and the holes
from the substrate all can be accelerated to high energies by the
substrate bias. More additional oxide traps can be produced, and
correspondingly, the degradation is strengthened by the substrate
bias. The results of the alternate stress experiment show that the
interface traps generated by the hot holes cannot be annealed, which
is different from those generated by common holes. 相似文献

The effects of channel length and width on the degradation of negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) are studied. With the channel length decreasing, the NBTI degradation increases. As tile channel edges have more damage and latent damage for the process reasons, the device can be divided into three parts: the gate and source overlap region, the middle channel region, and the gate and drain overlap region. When the NBTI stress is applied, the non-uniform distribution of the generated defects in the three parts will be generated due to the inhomogeneous degradation. With tile decreasing channel length, tile channel edge regions will take up a larger ratio to the middle channel region and the degradation of NBTI is enhanced. The channel width also plays an important role in the degradation of NBTI. There is an inflection point during the decreasing channel width. There are two particular factors: the lower vertical electric field effect for the thicker gate oxide thickness of the sha/low trench isolation (STI) edge and the STI mechanical stress effecting on the NBTI degradation. The former reduces and the latter intensifies the degradation. Under the mutual compromise of the both factors, when the effect of the STI mechanical stress starts to prevail over the lower vertical electric field effect with the channel width decreasing, the inflection point comes into being. 相似文献

Hot-carrier degradation for 90 nm gate length lightly-doped drain (LDD) NMOSFET with ultra-thin (1.4 nm) gate oxide is investigated under the low gate voltage stress (LGVS) and peak substrate current (Isub max) stress. It is found that the degradation of device parameters exhibits saturating time dependence under the two stresses. We concentrate on the effect of these two stresses on gate-induced-drain leakage (GIDL) current and stress induced leakage current (SILC). The characteristics of the GIDL current are used to analyse the damage generated in the gate-to-LDD region during the two stresses. However, the damage generated during the LGVS shows different characteristics from that during Isub stress. SILC is also investigated under the two stresses. It is found experimentally that there is a linear correlation between the degradation of SILC and that of threshold voltage during the two stresses. It is concluded that the mechanism of SILC is due to the combined effect of oxide charge trapping and interface traps for the ultra-short gate length and ultra-thin gate oxide LDD NMOSFETs under the two stresses. 相似文献

The measure of long-term memory is important for the study of economic and financial time series. This paper estimates the Hurst exponent from a Scaled Variance Ratio model for 17 commodity price series under the efficient market null H0:H=0.5. The distribution about the estimates of H are obtained from 90%, 95% and 99% confidence intervals generated from 20,000 Monte Carlo replications of a geometric Brownian motion. The results show that the scaled variance ratio provides a very good and stable estimate of the Hurst exponent, but the estimates can be quite different from the measure obtained from rescaled range or R–S analysis. In general commodity prices are consistent with the underlying assumption of a geometric Brownian motion. 相似文献

This paper presents the effects of interface trap concentration and threshold voltage shift on NBTI degradation in p-MOSFETs. To explore the degradation mechanisms, transistors having an EOT of 1.1 nm and 5 nm were simulated by applying various stress conditions. The NBTI degradation mechanism was studied by varying the gate voltage, temperature and substrate doping level. The simulations show NBTI degradation in terms of the threshold voltage shift, ΔVth and number of interface traps, ΔNit. The simulation results show an improved degradation trend in terms of ΔVth and ΔNit when the substrate doping level is increased. 相似文献

Evaluation of negative bias temperature instability in ultra-thin gate oxide pMOSFETs using a new on-line PDO method 下载免费PDF全文
A new on-line methodology is used to characterize the negative bias temperature
instability (NBTI) without inherent recovery. Saturation drain voltage shift and
mobility shift are extracted by ID-VD characterizations, which were
measured before stress, and after every certain stress phase, using the
proportional differential operator (PDO) method. The new on-line methodology avoids
the mobility linearity assumption as compared with the previous on-the-fly method.
It is found that both reaction--diffusion and charge-injection processes are
important in NBTI effect under either DC or AC stress. A similar activation energy,
0.15 eV, occurred in both DC and AC NBTI processes. Also degradation rate factor is
independent of temperature below 90\du\ and sharply increases above it. The
frequency dependence of NBTI degradation shows that NBTI degradation is independent
of frequencies. The carrier tunnelling and reaction--diffusion mechanisms exist
simultaneously in NBTI degradation of sub-micron pMOSFETs, and the carrier
tunnelling dominates the earlier NBTI stage and the reaction--diffusion mechanism
follows when the generation rate of traps caused by carrier tunnelling reaches its
maximum. 相似文献

A theoretical model is proposed for the chemical and vibrational kinetics of hydrogen oxidation based on consistent accounting of the vibrational non-equilibrium of the HO2 radical that forms as a result of the bimolecular recombination H+O2 → HO2. In the proposed model, the chain branching H+O2 = O+OH and inhibiting H+O2+M = HO2+M formal reactions are treated (in the terms of elementary processes) as a single multi-channel process of forming, intramolecular energy redistribution between modes, relaxation, and unimolecular decay of the comparatively long-lived vibrationally excited HO2 radical, which is able to react and exchange energy with the other components of the mixture. The model takes into account the vibrational non-equilibrium of the starting (primary) H2 and O2 molecules, as well as the most important molecular intermediates HO2, OH, O2(1Δ), and the main reaction product H2O. It is shown that the hydrogen–oxygen reaction proceeds in the absence of vibrational equilibrium, and the vibrationally excited HO2(v) radical acts as a key intermediate in a fundamentally important chain branching process and in the generation of electronically excited species O2(1Δ), O(1D), and OH(2Σ+). The calculated results are compared with the shock tube experimental data for strongly diluted H2–O2 mixtures at 1000 < T < 2500 K, 0.5 < p < 4 atm. It is demonstrated that this approach is promising from the standpoint of reconciling the predictions of the theoretical model with experimental data obtained by different authors for various compositions and conditions using different methods. For T < 1500 K, the nature of the hydrogen–oxygen reaction is especially non-equilibrium, and the vibrational non-equilibrium of the HO2 radical is the essence of this process. The quantitative estimation of the vibrational relaxation characteristic time of the HO2 radical in its collisions with H2 molecules has been obtained as a result of the comparison of different experimental data on induction time measurements with the relevant calculations. 相似文献

Analysis of femtosecond laser ionization/dissociation of polyatomic molecule C6H10O from one-colour pump-probe measurement 下载免费PDF全文
This paper reports that a one-colour fs pump-probe measurement has been carried out for studying photoionization/photodissociation of cyclohexanone (C6H10O) in intense laser field. Two of the fragments from cyclohexanone, C2H3+ and C3H3+ , are studied under 800 nm laser pump-probe and the results obtained show similar time evolutions. It proposes a feasible model for analysing the experimental observations of the one-colour fs pump-probe measurement. The results demonstrate that as an intermediate product, the excited molecular parent ions play a very important role in photionization/photodissociation processes in intense laser field. 相似文献

This investigation describes experiments on two sizes of p-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect-transistors (pMOSFETs), to study the negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) and hot-carrier (HC) induced degradation. This work demonstrates that the worst condition for pMOSFETs under HC tests occurs in CHC (channel HC, stressed at Vg = Vd) mode at high temperature. This study also shows that the worst degradation of pMOSFETs should occur in NBTI. This inference is based on a comparison of results for forward saturation current (Ids,f) and reverse saturation current (Ids,r) obtained in NBTI and HC tests. 相似文献

From the magnetic and electrical properties of some TTB type niobates and tantalates of Eu11 with general formula EuxNbO3 (0.5x 0.6), Eu0.5TaO3 and EuBCM5O15 (M = Ta, Nb; B = Eu11, Sr, Ba; C = Na, K) we have derived a schematic energy level model of Goodenough type for tungsten bronze type structure. This was found to be qualitatively in agreement with experimental results but could not account for large amounts of Eu3+ calculated on the basis of Mössbauer spectra. Computed electrostatic potentials in the TTB structure allowed verification of the proposed energy level diagram for Eu0.6NbO3. However, for Eu0.5NbO3 and EuBCM5O15, agreement between theoretical potentials and experimental results is obtained by ordering the Eu3+ ions in perovskite cages along the c axis of the structure. With three arrangements of the ordered perovskite units, it was possible to account for the amounts of Eu3+ found experimentally in most of the compounds. 相似文献
