Title: The experimental investigation on stress-induced leakage current under Fowler-Nordheim constant voltage stress

The SILC in ultrathin gate oxide is proportional to exp(/spl beta/ /spl middot/ E/sub ox/). The SILC plot of ln(J/sub SILC/) versus E/sub ox/ is linear. The intercept and slope of this straight line of ln(J/sub SILC/) vs. E/sub ox/ plot will change with stress time, the intercept increases and the slope decreases, during the initial stress stage and saturates after long stress time. The intercept and slope of the SILC plot and ln(J/sub SILC/) all not only can be fitted by two exponential decay functions, but also the time constant, /spl tau//sub 1/ and /spl tau//sub 2/, of the fitted parameters are the same value. So we think there two types of trap play very important role in SILC of ultrathin oxide.Read More
