Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 電子工程學系 === 85 === In this thesis , the parameter extraction of P-MOSFETs is made first before quantitatively analyzing on the degradation of short-channel P-MOSFETs. The charge-pumping method developed by Advanced Semiconductor Device Reasearch Laboratory has been used to profiling the distributions of the interface-state density and the oxide traps and the results are taken to explain the I-V characteristics. We concentrate our analysis on the reliability of buried-channel P-MOSFETs. When the fresh devices are measured by the charge-pumping method , some strange phenomenon has been discovered and is dramatically different from N-MOSFET*s. The surface-channel P-MOSFETs thus are measured for comparisons. We find that such a phenomenon only appears on counter-implanted buried-channel P-MOSFETs. The existence of the active-region defects due to counter-implant is the major reason to account for the distribution of interface-state density we measured. After stressing for a long time , the active-region defects appear the minor effects on the profiling of the interface-state density. Therefore , the results can be used to explain the I-V characteristics including the subthreshold characteristics , turn-on current and substrate current. Based on these analyses , we can improve the device design for high performance and reliability applications. In addition , the active-region defects measured by the charge-pumping method can also help us for the process improvement.
