CCST Monitor the variation of VG and measure tBD (time-to-breakdown) while a constant current being applied. QBD is calculated from ……….. (3.2) The stress current density is usually 50 ~ 100 mA/cm2 when the gate oxide thickness is in the range of 50 ~ 100 ? . The slope represe...
8.3.1 Equivalent oxide thickness The stack formed by the semiconductor, the gate insulator and the metal gate constitutes the other fundamental building block of the MOSFET. From an electrical point of view, this system behaves like a parallel plate capacitor, as illustrated in Figure 8.1: when ...
We provide a quantitative analysis on the charge-retention characteristics of sub-threshold operating In–Ga–Zn–O (IGZO) thin-film transistors (TFTs) with a defective gate-oxide for low-power synaptic applications. Here, a defective SiO2 is incorporated as the synaptic gate-oxide in the fabric...
The gate oxide is the weakest link in a SiC power MOSFET. From an intrinsic (dielectric material) reliability standpoint, Si and SiC power MOSFETs with 40 nm to 80 nm oxide thickness have been shown to have similar lifetimes from Time Dependent Dielectric Breakdown (TDDB) measurements [9]. ...
