The ID- VG characteristics can be tested with the pseudo-MOSFET method before and after radiation. The results show that a proper Si-ion-implantation method can enhance the total-dose radiation tolerance of the materials.展开更多

Two-dimensional analytical models of surface potential and threshold voltage for the novel SOI MOSFET are developed based on the explicit solution of the two-dimensional Poisson's equation. Its characteristic improvement is investigated. It is concluded that the novel structure exhibits better suppression of drain-induced barrier lowering and higher carrier transport efficiency than conventional dual material gate SOI MOSFETs. Its drain-induced barrier lowering decreases with increasing halo doping concentration but does not change monotonically with halo length. The analytical models agree well with the two-dimensional device simulator MEDICI.展开更多

The front gate consists of two metal gates with different work functions by making them contacting laterally, and the channel is more heavily doped near the source than in the rest. Using a three-region polynomial potential distribution and a universal boundary condition, a two-dimensional analytical model for the fully depleted silicon-on-insulator MOSFET is developed based on the explicit solution of two-dimensional Poisson's equation. The model includes the calculation of potential distribution along the channel and subthreshold current. The performance improvement of the novel silicon-on-insulator MOSFET is examined and compared with the traditional silicon-on-insulator MOSFET using the analytical model and two-dimensional device simulator MEDICI. It is found that the novel silicon-on-insulator MOSFET could not only suppress short channel effect, but also increase cartier transoort efficiency noticeably. The derived analytical model agrees well with MEDICI.展开更多

The radiation performance is characterized by threshold voltage shifts and leakage currents of transistors and standby currents of ASIC as functions of the total dose up to 500krad(Si). The experimental results show that the worst case threshold voltage shifts of front channels are less than 320mV for pMOS transistors under off-gate radiation bias at 1Mrad(Si) and less than 120mV for nMOS transistors under on-gate radiation bias. No significant radiation-induced leakage current is observed in transistors to 1Mrad (Si). The standby currents of ASIC are less than the specification of 5μA over the total dose range of 500krad(Si).展开更多
