A shallow trench isolation （STI） parasitic transistor is responsible for the observed hump in the back-gate transfer characteristic curve. The STI parasitic transistor, in which the trench oxide acts as the gate oxide, is sensitive to the radiation, and it introduces a new way to characterize the total ionizing dose （TID） responses in the STI oxide. A radiation enhanced drain induced barrier lower （DIBL） effect is observed in the STI parasitic transistor. It is manifested as the drain bias dependence of the radiation-induced off-state leakage and the increase of the DIBL parameter in the STI parasitic transistor after irradiation. Increasing the doping concentration in the whole body region or just near the STI sidewall can increase the threshold voltage of the STI parasitic transistor, and further reduce the radiation-induced off-state leakage. Moreover, we find that the radiation-induced trapped charge in the buried oxide leads to an obvious front-gate threshold voltage shift through the coupling effect. The high doping concentration in the body can effectively suppress the radiation-induced coupling effect.展开更多

A method characterizing the MOSFET abilities of an anti-hot carrier with noise parameter Sfγ is presented. The hot carrier degradation effect of n-MOSFET in high-,mid-,and low gate stresses and its 1/fγ noise feature are studied. Experimental results agree well with the developed model.展开更多

The experimental data of short channel devices （75-90 nm）, which does not fit formal degradation power law well, will bring severe error in lifetime prediction. This phenomenon usually happens under high drain voltage （Vd） stress condition. A new model was presented to fit the degradation curve better. It was observed that the peak of the substrate current under low drain voltage stress cannot be found in ultra-short channel device. Devices with different channel lengths were studied under different Vd stresses in order to understand the relations between peak of substrate current （/sub） and channel length/stress voltage.展开更多
