A physical model of electron trapping/detrapping in electrically stressed oxide
نویسندگان
چکیده
A physical model of electron trapping/detrapping in electrically stressed oxide has been proposed in this paper. The new model is based on both inelastic multi-phonon trap-assisted tunneling and thermal emission, and also considers the capture effect of oxide bulk traps. It handles every trap separately, and establishes the dynamic procedure of traps capture and emission of electrons. Finally, through the proposed model we may accurately and effectively obtain the filling state of all the oxide traps at any stress and any time, which is very useful for the modeling of the endurance and data retention characteristics of floating gate nonvolatile memories.

Investigation of Oxide Charge Trapping and Detrapping in a MOSFET by Using a GIDL Current Technique
We proposed a new measurement technique to investigate oxide charge trapping and detrapping in a hot carrier stressed n-MOSFET by measuring a GIDL current transient. This measurement technique is based on the concept that in a MOSFET the Si surface field and thus GIDL current vary with oxide trapped charge. By monitoring the temporal evolution of GIDL current, the oxide charge trapping/detrappi...

Transient trapping/detrapping of electrons at the Si~100!/SiO2 outer surface is studied studied in vacuum or with an O2 ambient ~between 10 23 and 30 Torr! following internal electron photoemission from Si. Photoemission-current ~produced by a 150 fs, 800 nm laser source! and contact-potential-difference techniques were used to investigate a wide variety of nand p-doped samples at 300 K with th...

We present a simulation study on negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) induced hole trapping in E' center defects, which leads to depassivation of interface trap precursor in different geometrical structures of high-k PMOSFET gate stacks using the two-stage NBTI model. The resulting degradation is characterized based on the time evolution of the interface and hole trap densities, as well...
متن کاملCharacterization of Transient Gate Oxide Trapping in SiC MOSFETs Using Fast I–V Techniques
Threshold voltage and drain current instabilities in state-of-the-art 4H-SiC MOSFETs with thermal as-grown SiO2 and NO-annealed gate oxides have been studied using fast I–V measurements. These measurements reveal the full extent of the instability underestimated by dc measurements. Furthermore, fast measurements allow the separation of negative and positive bias stress effects. Postoxidation an...
متن کاملElectroforming Process in Metal-Oxide-Polymer Resistive Switching Memories
Electroforming of an Al/Al2O3/polymer/Al resistive switching diode is reported. Electroforming is a dielectric soft-breakdown mechanism leading to hysteretic current– voltage characteristics and non–volatile memory behavior. Electron trapping occurs at early stages of electroforming. Trapping is physically located at the oxide/polymer interface. The detrapping kinetics is faster under reverse b...
