Model for Charge Accumulation in n- and p-MOS Transistors during Tunneling Electron Injection from a Gate

详细

A quantitative model for charge accumulation in an undergate dielectric during tunneling electron injection from a gate according to the Fowler–Nordheim mechanism is developed. The model takes into account electron and hole capture at hydrogen-free and hydrogen-related traps as well as the generation of surface states during the interaction of holes with hydrogen-related centers. The experimental dependences of the threshold voltage shift and gate voltage shift of n- and p-channel MOS (metal–oxide–semiconductor) transistors on the injected charge in the constant current mode are analyzed based on the model.
